I sit and wait does an angel 

contemplate my fate and 

do they know 

the placesWhere we go 

when we're grey and old 



'cos I've been told 

that salvation lets their wings unfold 



So when I'm lying in my bed 

thoughts running through my head 

And i feel that love is dead 

I'm loving angels instead 



[Chorus:] 

And through it all he offers me protection 

a lot of love and affection 

Whether I'm right or wrong 

and down the waterfall 

Wherever it may take me 

I know that life won't break me 

When I come to call 

he won't forsake me 

I'm loving angels instead 



When I'm feeling weak 

and my pain walks down 

a one way street 

I look above 

And I know I'll always be blessed with love 

and as the feeling grows 

He breathes flesh to my bones 

and when love is dead 

I'm loving angels instead 



[Chorus] 

And through it all he offers me protection 

a lot of love and affection 

Whether I'm right or wrong 

and down the waterfall 

Wherever it may take me 

I know that life won't break me 

When I come to call 

he won't forsake me 

I'm loving angels instead 



[Repeat Chorus]
