Angel |
| It is a hurtin' thing you don’t wanna talk about it |
| Pain in your heart well it’s takin' your breath away |
| You left it in lipstick on the mirror no use talkin' about it |
| Love like this just don’t come along every day |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Somebody just let love get up and go downtown |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Angel wings out in the snow and mascara running down |
| They called you tookie in high school, you didn’t mind it too much |
| Kind of nice to have a nickname, kind of like they thought about it |
| You wish that it stuck with you, didn’t have to trade it in on |
| Some crazy lover’s pet name, wind up hurtin' so much |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Somebody just let love get up and go downtown |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Angel wings out in the snow and mascara running down |
| He peeled the skin off of the world and you stopped breathin' |
| You drew a breath, he sighed, the air was freezin' |
| Two blood-red hearts pumpin' hard out in the open |
| You skinned your knee at kickball |
| Twenty years ago against all hopin' |
| Y’all put that hammer down and drove through love’s angel food cake |
| Tastin' every spongy layer and lickin' frosting off the moon |
| Wild-eyed with excitement but childishly disappointed |
| Maybe even tasted better when mama let you lick the spoon |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Somebody just let love get up and go downtown |
| Somebody just stop calling you angel |
| Angel wings out in the snow and mascara running down |
