Rio Diamond - Demons And Angels lyrics

rate me

He swore it was over and all in his past

A few hours later his hand's 'round a glass

A voice on the left says,

"There's peace in the wine"

From the right a voice whispers,

"Don't do it this time"

When he looks for the answer

down in his heart

Demons and angels tear him apart

She calls his name softly

As she lies in their bed

Listens for footsteps and prays for the best

She knows that he loves her

Knows that he tries

But if he comes home drinking

She'll leave him tonight

She waits for the answer and

Cries in the dark

While demons and angels tear him apart

For so long they've fought for his soul

The whisky and the woman at home

And they all know he must choose

The winner alone

There's not much that's sweeter

Than a new life begun

Ain't much that's sadder

Than a promise undone

He stares at the bottle,

Longs for her arms

While demons and angels tear him apart

When he looks for the answer down in his heart

There's demons and angels that tear him apart
