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've 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

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

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
