"Angels Like You" lyrics

"Angels Like You"

Flowers in hand, waiting for me
Every word in poetry
Won't call me by name, only "Baby"
The more that you give the less that I
Need everyone says I look happy
When it feels right

I know that you're wrong for me
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave
I brought you down to your knees
'Cause they say that misery loves company
It's not your fault I ruin everything
And it's not your fault I can't be what you need
Baby, angels like you can't fly down hell with me
I'm everything they said I would be
La-la-la
I'm everything they said I would be

I'll put you down slow, love you, goodbye
Before you let go, just one more time
Take off your clothes, pretend that it's fine
A little more hurt won't kill you
Tonight my mom says, "You don't look happy"
Close your eyes

I know that you're wrong for me
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave
I brought you down to your knees
'Cause they say that misery loves company
It's not your fault I ruin everything
And it's not your fault I can't be what you need
Baby, angels like you can't fly down hell with me
I'm everything they said I would be

I know that you're wrong for me
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave
I brought you down to your knees
'Cause they say that misery loves company
It's not your fault I ruin everything
And it's not your fault I can't be what you need
Baby, angels like you can't fly down hell with me, oh-oh
Angels like you can't fly down hell with me

Miley Cyrus told Zane Lowe the following about "Angels Like You" during an interview for Apple Music, "At first listen you go like: 'Man, she's really putting it out there.', like I know, 'You're gonna wish we never met on the day I leave'. You're gonna think I'm cold-blooded but then it's like 'It's not your fault'. This song is saying – there is like some remorse to it – all these things should add up on paper to 'You're the one for me', but I know that you're wrong for me."
Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic is one of the co-writers of this track.
There is a version of this song titled "Angels Like You (Backyard Sessions)" included on the "Apple Music Backyard Sessions Edition" of the album "Plastic Hearts".
"Angels Like You" was leaked twice during the year of 2020. Each time a different version.
