lyrics

I saw an angel, out on the Rye
So I barged through the crowds gathered round as she sang to say hi
I stammered out my name, and she said "I'm Evelina, y'alright?"

I said 'with a voice like that you should be in West End shows'
She said 'I've been up before and they showed me the door so I don't venture north of Queens Road'
We both had no idea what the future would hold

Evelina
God, how you’ve changed
To see you
It feels so strange
There's so much
But baby, do they love you like I do?

We gigged round the uplands, and things were so fine
But I knew the way that she played meant someday she would leave me behind
And so when the agent walked into the Half Moon I knew it was time

And yeah, now she's famous, the Angel of SE15
Bantering with Norton and tabloid page courting the heir to the throckmorton baronetcy, but for me, it's TV and a bitterness I could not compete

He jostled through the pissed up punters
Said "Darling, you could be a star"
Swear down that's the last time I saw her
Whisked up Denmark Hill in that guy's car
