Angel

I call you up
You pick up
You call my bluff
On the cards of love
You hold to close
Your hands to your chest
I can’t read your eyes
But I confess
It’s lonely far from you
Even when you’re right by me
It’s only why I wait for you
Take my hand yeah

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I come after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You

I play my cards
Best I can
But I lose my luck
When you’re not here
My darling heart
Won’t you please give in
I may be strong
But I want you back again
When you’re not here
It’s hard to pretend
It’s all alright
Again
When you’re not here love
It’s hard to pretend
It’s all alright….still

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I run after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You

Watch the deck
Count your cards
Makes no sense
That I’m always losing
When you’re gone

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy
Why do I run after you
Like I do
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You’ll be my angel
You
When you’re gone
