Lyrics

Everybody told me, things will be fine tomorrow
But Lord it still hurts so bad
I just can’t bear this sorrow
When I’ve lost everything I ever had

The orange moon is hanging, so low in the clear night sky
But Lord it don’t shine on me
I just can’t live and I’ll die
Now I’ve lost everything that might have been

Detroit lost an angel tonight
Just as the city turned out her lights
Yeah, Detroit lost an angel tonight, my friend
It’s a city where pain never ends

The streets are cold and silent, no music in the air
The Motown sound is real sad
In my mind and I don’t care
‘Cause I’ve lost everything I ever had

Detroit lost an angel tonight
Just as the city turned out her lights
Yeah, Detroit lost an angel tonight, my friend
It’s a city where pain never ends

Oh Detroit, won’t you bring her back to me
Under that orange moon where love used to be
Detroit lost an Angel and I’m lost too
My heart’s forever broken in this city without you

Detroit lost an angel tonight
Just as the city turned out her lights
Yeah, Detroit lost an angel tonight, my friend
It’s a city where pain never ends

Detroit lost an angel tonight
Just as the city turned out her lights
Yeah, Detroit lost an angel tonight, my friend
It’s a city where pain never ends
