Lyrics
It happened late one night
Describing a specific event that occurred late at night
Out with friends to the early light
Being with friends until the early hours of the morning
Nothing strange there, I could'nt care less
Expressing indifference towards something ordinary
Then, like a flash in the night, right out of the blue
Suddenly and unexpectedly encountering something unusual
Something I never thought that I would run into
Encountering something that was not anticipated
To the left, stepping in sight
Noticing someone approaching from the left
Should have known when I saw you there
Realizing a connection when seeing the person
Like the sun through a misty morning
Comparing the person's presence to the sun in a misty morning
Should have known, well now it's clear
Reflecting on the realization and expressing clarity
You were an angel walking on air
Acknowledging the person as an angel walking gracefully
Moving on in our lifes
Moving forward in life
We had good times and some strives
Recalling both positive and challenging experiences
But there were nothing strange there, I could'nt care less
Reiterating a lack of concern for anything strange
Then, like a flash in the night, right out of the blue
Experiencing a sudden and surprising event
Something I never thought that I would run into
Facing something unexpected and not previously considered
To the left, stepping in sight
Observing someone approaching from the left again
Should have known when I saw you there
Recognizing the person upon seeing them
Like the sun through a misty morning
Continuing the metaphor of the person as the sun in the morning mist
Should have known, well now it's clear
Affirming the understanding and clarity about the person
You were an angel walking on air
Reiterating the person as an angel walking gracefully
Should have known when I saw you there
Repeating the realization upon seeing the person
Like the sun through a misty morning
Comparing the person's presence to the sun once again
Should have known, well now it's clear
Affirming the understanding and clarity once more
You were an angel walking on air
Emphasizing the person as an angel walking gracefully
Should have known when I saw you there
Repeating the realization upon seeing the person yet again
Like the sun through a misty morning
Continuing the metaphor of the person as the morning sun
Should have known, well now it's clear
Affirming the understanding and clarity for the final time
You were an angel walking
Concluding the recognition of the person as an angel walking
You were an angel walking by my side
Affirming the presence of the angelic figure by one's side
