First time I saw you girl you brought me to my knees
Though it's been a while now you still look the same to me
Don't tell me I don't feel the way I used to
Maybe I don't act the way I should
But how was I supposed to know your eyes were angel blue
When you're the only one I ever knew?
Hope I haven't lost you, let your lovin' slip away
All that's left for me to do is lay awake and pray
That maybe you'll forget about the things I've done
And come to know that you're the only one?
How was I supposed to know you had an angel's smile
When you're the only angel in my life?
Chorus: I guess it's hard sometimes for me to understand
And maybe I don't always do the best I can
But after all you know that Babe I'm just a man
And I don't know how to let it show
Let me ask you one more time to please just take me in
I promise that you'll never have to doubt again
I'll let you know that I love you more each day
Never fail to find the words to say
How was I supposed to know an angel has no wings
When you're the only one I've ever seen?
Repeat Chorus
I guess sometimes it's hard to tell an angel's passed your way
I didn't know you were an angel -
Didn't know I had an angel -
'Til I watched my angel -
fly away
