angel


Sometimes I feel
like I don't belong anywhere
And it's gonna take so long
for me to get somewhere
Sometimes I feel so heavy-hearted
and I can't explain
cause I'm so guarded

But that's a lonely road to travel
and a heavy load to bear
and it's a long, long way to heaven
but I gotta get there

Can you send me an angel?
Please send me an angel
to guide me

. . .

Sometimes I feel
like a door with no key
and all the answers are locked away in me
and they're so hard to find
especially when I feel lost and so blind

But that's a lonely road to travel
and a heavy load to bear
and it's a long, long way to heaven
I gotta get there

Can you send an angel?
Please send an angel
to guide me

Cause I don't wanna feel
like a dove with no wings
and I don't wanna know
what a heart of stone sings

Cause that's a lonely road to travel
and a heavy load to bear
and it's a long, long way to heaven
but I gotta get there

Can you send me an angel?
Please send me an angel
to guide me . . .
