The Bangles - Angels Don't Fall In Love lyrics

rate me

(V. Peterson/S. Hoffs)

Vicki

I saw you today

She's lovely

You're such a heavenly pair

You hope and you pray

Someday she'll take you all the way there

You should know better, darling

When push comes to shove

Angels don't fall in love

You stand at the gate

Hoping to gain admission

How long are you willing to wait

She won't give permission tonight

You've got your higher aims

Got your ambitions

You think you're spiritual

And on some mission

Well, I can see it when I look in your eyes

When you think of love

You think of compromise

It's no big disgrace

There's no loss of grace

The trouble is there's always someone there to take your place

And the trouble is you don't believe that it's true

When the sun goes down there's something left for you

The trouble is I see you missing so much

While you're knocking on all the wrong doors

Looking for some angel's touch

You think she's everything you're dreaming of

The trouble is those angels never fall in love
