About

Angelene describes the life of a prostitute r and pining for a man she’s never met, 2,000 miles away. Harvey alludes to Salinger’s story ‘Pretty Mouth and Green My Eyes’, including by directly quoting Arthur’s poem dedicated to his wife: “Rose is my color, and white / Pretty mouth and green my eyes....

Angelene Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My first name, Angelene
Prettiest mess you've ever seen
Love for money is my sin
Any man calls, I'll let him in

[Verse 2]
Rose is my color and white
Pretty mouth, and green my eyes
I see men come and go
But there will be one who will collect my soul and come to me

[Chorus]
Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
It lays open like a road

[Verse 3]
Dear God, life ain't kind
People getting born and dying
But I've heard there's joy untold
Lays open like a road in front of me

[Chorus]
Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
It lays open like a road
It seems so far away
I see men come and go
Two thousand miles until I reach that open road

[Outro]
My first name's Angelene
