"Angel" lyrics

"Angel"

I call you up
You pick up
You call my bluff
On the cards of love
You hold too close
Your hands to your chest
I can't read your eyes
But I confess
It's lonely far from you
Even when you're right by me
It's only why I wait for you
Take my hand yeah

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy?
Why do I come after you
Like I do?
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel
You

I play my cards
Best I can
But I lose my luck
When you're not here
My darling heart
Won't you please give in?
I may be strong
But I want you back again
When you're not here
It's hard to pretend
It's all alright
Again
When you're not here love
It's hard to pretend
It's all alright... still

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy?
Why do I come after you
Like I do?
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel
You

Watch the deck
Count your cards
Makes no sense
That I'm always losing
When you're gone

Why do I beg like a child
For your candy?
Why do I come after you
Like I do?
I love you
Whatever you are I swear
You'll be my angel
You
