Even An Angel

There are words that I keep locked up tight inside my head

Words I know should not be heard and better left unsaid

There are times I'm so ashamed for the things I've done to you

But time moves on and leaves the blame for the things I can't undo

And I don't know why but somehow I am forgiven

Every time you know I'm about to lose my hold

You somehow pull me back in line and give me back control

And I swear that I'm gonna change and believe it will be true

But deep inside that devil's hiding like a rock down in my shoe

And I tell myself it's because of your help that I'm living

But I know even an angel has gotta get the blues some days

When you're growing old trying to save lost souls

When deep down you know that you can fly away

And even an angel's gotta ask

Dear God, when's it gonna be my time?

I've been mending his broken heart

When's somebody gonna mend mine?

Cause even an angel's got something to lose

And I know even an angel gets the blues

I know even an angel has gotta get the blues some days

When you're growing old trying to save lost souls

When deep down you know you can fly away

And even an angel's gotta ask

Dear God, when's it gonna be my time?

I've been mending his broken heart

Tell me when's somebody gonna mend mine?

Cause even an angel's got something to lose

And I know even an angel gets the blues

Cause even an angel's got something to lose

Even an angel gets the blues
