The Trouble With Angels
She had a rusty old halo
And make-believe wings
She lay down beside me
To ease up my pain
She lifted me gently
She helped me stand
I knew an angel
Was holding my hand
The trouble with angels
Is they never stay
The trouble with angels
Is they all fly away
She sang to me softly
Her tender love song
And she rocked me gently
All night long
She watched me grow strong
Stronger each day
When I grew restless
She flew away
That's the trouble with angels
They never stay
The trouble with angels
They all fly away
She's out searching for someone
Someone in pain
With her rusty old halo
And her make-believe wings
The trouble with angels
They never stay
The trouble with angels
They fly away
The trouble with angels
They fly away
And make-believe wings
She lay down beside me
To ease up my pain
She lifted me gently
She helped me stand
I knew an angel
Was holding my hand
The trouble with angels
Is they never stay
The trouble with angels
Is they all fly away
She sang to me softly
Her tender love song
And she rocked me gently
All night long
She watched me grow strong
Stronger each day
When I grew restless
She flew away
That's the trouble with angels
They never stay
The trouble with angels
They all fly away
She's out searching for someone
Someone in pain
With her rusty old halo
And her make-believe wings
The trouble with angels
They never stay
The trouble with angels
They fly away
The trouble with angels
They fly away
