Sweet Angel


If I could tell you I love you, would this
Pain come out of my head?
You’ve got a grip on my heart, and I’m
Dangling by a thread.
Baby, there’s somebody here who’d like to
Hold you ‘til the end of time... There’s gotta
Be some way for me to know...
Am I killing myself for nothing?
Is that heart of gold of yours
Meant for me?
If I could show you what you mean...

You came out of nowhere,
Taking big steps... your eyes a-glow.
You’ve got charm, and you know it.
— When you work the room it’s like a puppet show.
I was a target for you, and
My soft shell wasn’t bulletproof.
Was it wrong how you
Managed to take me down?... Are you
Taking my love for granted?... I was
Caught off guard when you reached for me.

I surrender can’t you see?

Angel, you’re breaking my heart
Distant lover, what kind of
Game did you start?
Brazen woman, I want a
Sign from you.
Show me that your heart is true!

Your bases are covered.
— You like to watch your back along the way.
You make a mess of your lovers.
— As you look forward they see yesterday.
I want a message from you
That you’re not ready to
Let me go.
I’ve got... heartache just
Standing next to you!... I just
Want you to know what I’m made of... Would you
Take my hand before it’s gone?

I’ve been waiting for so long...

Angel, you’re breaking my heart
Distant lover, what kind of
Game did you start?
Brazen woman, I want a
Sign from you.
Show me that your heart is true!
Show me that your heart is true!
