It's Like You Carry Wings

 

He, he broke your heart and crushed your soul

Fed you lies and pushed you down the slopes

Lifted you again to see the world

as a place touched by God in a way

A place to live your dreams each day

 

It's like you carry wings, you're an angel

and you don't know how to leave a man

You can only want him, you need him

and you'll always stay, stay in love with him

 

TIme might heal the wounds and clear the skies

drive the clouds away and let your eyes

open up again to see the world

the way you used to see it

as a place touched by God in a way

a place to live your dreams each day

 

But if you carry wings like an angel

and you don't know how to leave a man

You can only want him, you need him

and you'll always stay, stay in love with him

 

Many girls will meet the gambler

well, and men will too

You will dance with them and cherish them

and adore them, true

They will love you with their eyes

without a flutter in their hearts

They will treat you like a number

You're an item on their charts

They will treat you like a number

You're an item on their charts

 

Love can handle you in many ways

Add a few or steal away your days

Give you hope and make you see the world

as a place touched by God in a way

a place to live your dreams each day

 

But if you carry wings like an angel

and you don't know how to leave a man

You can only want him, you need him

and you'll always stay, stay in love with him

 

Many girls will meet the gambler

well, and men will too

You will dance with them and cherish them

and adore them, true

They will love you with their eyes

without a flutter in their hearts

They will treat you like a number

You're an item on their charts

They will treat you like a number

You're an item on their charts

 

So why you carry wings like an angel

is 'cause you don't know how to leave a man 

You just have to want him, and need him

and you'll always stay, stay in love with him

 

So why you carry wings like an angel

is 'cause you don't know how to leave a man 

You just have to want him, and need him

And you'll always stay, stay in love with him

Stay in love with him
