Wishbone Ash - Angels Have Mercy lyrics

Look in the mirrorand what do you see?

Reflections of a person that used to be.

You're running 'round towncreating bad debts -

Let's face itbabyyour life is a mess.

You're driving fast nowand speeding again -

That'll never help you ease the pain.

There's nothing in a bottle you can take from the shelf

That'll bring you back to earth'cause you need help.

The angels have mercy on you

But they can't stop you doing what you wanna do.

May the angels have mercy on you -

I'm gonna help you pull through.

Now you're headed down a one-way street -

Let the needle return.

I've been there. who you meet?

Watch outyou're gonna get burned.

You can't blame me for the mess you're in -

All your life you've been fooling yourself.

I'll help you if I can -

You know I'll be there.

Life's too sweet to show this lack of care.

The angels have mercy on you

But they can't stop you doing what you wanna do.

May the angels have mercy on you -

I'm gonna help you pull through.

Take a looka look at yourself. (three times)

As the angels have mercy on you!
