I sit-and wait_
Does an an_gel
Con-tem-plate_ my fate_
And do-they know
The pla-ces where we go
When-we're grey and old___
'Cos I have been_told
That sal-va_tion
Lets their wings_ un-fold_
So-when I'm ly-ing-in-my-bed
Thoughts run-ning-through-my-head
And-I-feel-that-love-is dead_
I'm lov-ing an-gels in-stead
And through it all__
She of-fers me pro-tec-tion
A lot-of love and af-fec_tion
Whe-ther I'm right or wrong
And down the-wat-er-fall__
Wher-ev-er it may take_ me
I know that-life won't-break_ me
When I-come to-call
She won't for-sake_ me_
I'm lov-ing an-gels in-stead
When-I'm feel-ing weak
And my-pain_ walks down_
A one_ way street
I look-a-bove
And I know_
I'll al-ways be blessed_ with love_
And as-the-feel-ing-grows_
She-brings flesh to-my bones
And when love is dead
I'm lov-ing an-gels in-stead
And through it all__
She of-fers me pro-tec-tion
A lot-of love and af-fec_tion
Whe-ther I'm right or wrong
And down the-wat-er-fall__
Wher-ev-er it may take_ me
I know that-life won't-break_ me
When I-come to-call
She won't for-sake_ me_
I'm lov-ing an-gels in-stead_
And through it all__
She of-fers me pro-tec-tion
A lot-of love and af-fec_tion
Whe-ther I'm right or wrong
And down the-wat-er-fall__
Wher-ev-er it_may take_ me
I know that-life won't-break_ me
When I-come to-call
She won't for-sake_ me_
I'm lov-ing an-gels in-stead
