| I felt so blue — the sky was so grey
|
| It was pouring down — I went walking anyway
|
| A ragged old man came right up to me
|
| He said: «I'm half blind — but there’s things I see
|
| And things I believe …» He said …
|
| Even angels cry
|
| If you don’t believe my words
|
| Just look up at the sky
|
| Do you really think it’s rain
|
| It’s nothing more than heaven’s pain
|
| Even angels cry
|
| Even angels cry
|
| I said, «Man, what makes you so smart?»
|
| He said, «Have you ever heard of a broken heart?
|
| Since she left me I’ve been sad as you
|
| But she lets me know she misses me, too
|
| I know that it’s true.»
|
| Even angels cry
|
| If you don’t believe my words
|
| Just look up at the sky
|
| Do you really think it’s rain
|
| It’s nothing more than heaven’s pain
|
| Even angels cry
|
| Even angels cry
|
| I really do believe that love’s forever
|
| When it takes a hold of you, it won’t let you go
|
| And it can pull a broken heart together
|
| And just in case you’re troubled, I want you to know
|
| Even angels cry
|
| If you don’t believe my words
|
| Just look up at the sky
|
| Do you really think it’s rain
|
| It’s nothing more than heaven’s pain
|
| Even angels cry
|
| Even angels cry |
