Melissa Etheridge - The Angels lyrics

Sometimes I feel like an innocent one

To deserve this fate what I have I ever done

I know that I made all the rules

But time can even change the hopeless ways of fools

I love you tonight like I did yesterday

I won't think of tomorrow or the price I pay

I drink from the well my soul is dry

I never know why

All I want is for your love to be all mine

But the angels won't have it

All I want is just a little peace of mind

But the angels won't have it

I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell

I guess it's just as well

'Cause the angels won't have it

Who's looking after this see-through heart

Someone up there isn't doing their part

Oh Cupid you foolish boy

You should take better aim with your brand new toy

I love you tonight like I did yesterday

I don't think of tomorrow or the price I pay

I drink from the well my soul is dry

I never know why

All I want is for your love to be all mine

But the angels won't have it

All I want is just a little peace of mind

But the angels won't have it

I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell

I guess it's just as well

'Cause the angels won't have it

So if I die before I wake

The innocent one whose heart could never break

Lift me up take me out of this bed

Watching the angels shake their heads

Don't feel sorry for me baby honey don't you cry

You can sell all of my clothes you will forget me by and by

I'll be riding that train I'll be singing that song

But I won't be gone for long

'Cause the angels won't have it

All I want is for your love to be all mine

But the angels won't have it

All I want is just a little peace of mind

But the angels won't have it

I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell

I guess it's just as well

'Cause the angels won't have it
