I sit and wait 
does an angel contemplate my fate 
and do they know 
the places where 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 
 [bad word] through my head 
and I feel that love is dead 
I m loving angels instead 

and through it all she 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 wont break me 
when [bad word] to call she wont 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 ill always be blessed with love 
and as the feeling grows 
she breathes flesh to my bones 
and when love is dead 
I m loving angels instead 

and through it all she 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 wont break me 
when [bad word] to call she wont forsake me 
I m loving angels instead
