JENNIE's “FALLEN ANGEL” is about a winged girl adrift in the sky who longs for someone to stay with her and make a home out of wherever they land. She drifts on the wind, searching for love and feeling empty once he is gone. She asks him to take her hand and run, saying her wings mean nothing without him. The mood is dreamy and tender, with a rising ache of not wanting to be left alone.
