Matraca Berg - If I Were An Angel Lyrics
(matraca berg/gary harrison)They say I latched onto youLike you was the last train leaving townBut you just kept on moving, boyLeft me here to live you downMomma said shed send a wireAnd cried on the phoneSaid, youll always be my angel girlWont you come back homeWell, if I was an angel I could fly over jordanAnd I wouldnt need no greyhound to save my soulBut maybe thats a good thing cause Ill be home before I knowAnd if I was an angel Id have a long way to goSo I got a job as a waitressIn some God forsaken placeGuess theres no choosing where you landWhen you fall from graceWell, Im not sure what keeps me hereMy shame or my fool prideWell, neither one can give me wingsOr offer me a rideWell, if I was an angel I could fly over jordanAnd I wouldnt need no greyhound to save my soulBut maybe thats a good thing cause Ill be home before I knowAnd if I was an angel Id have a long way to goAnd oh, tonight Ill be dreamingOf the cracks in the sidewalkAnd a face through the windowBack to a place I belongAnd if I was an angel I could fly over jordanAnd I wouldnt need no greyhound to save my soulBut maybe thats a good thing cause Ill be home before I knowAnd if I was an angel Id have a long way to goWell, maybe thats a good thing cause Ill be home before I knowAnd if I was an angel Id have a long way to go
