I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old

'cos I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed
thoughts running through my head
and I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

CHORUS
And through it all she offers me protection
a lot of love and affection
whether i'm right or wrong
and down the waterfall
wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
when i come to call
she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

When i'm feeling weak
and my pain walks down a one way street
i look above
and i know i'll always be blessed with love
and as the feeling grows
she breathes flesh to my bones
and when love is dead
i'm loving angels instead

CHORUS x 2
