We're No Angels

(album: Chemistry - 1981)

Ever alone and isolated and deep within the soul
And ever optimistic that one day we'll reach the goal
An inner voice keeps pushing, saying we must do our best
While all the time we know that we'll be settling for less

But we're no angels
We're no angels

Well things are moving faster than we'll ever comprehend
Now to some it is a comfort to have faith that life don't end
Always hoping for a second chance to fulfill our desires
We so looking for a saviour when we fall into the fires

But we're no angels
We're no angels
I never said I was an angel
No girl, we're no angels

So come on and flap your arms like wings on the wind
Trying to get up higher to be a little like an angel
To be like Gabriel
There's a demon dwelling down below, darker than us all
Though once he was a pretty angel
Who never thought he would fall
So we follow dreams, we seek what's real
Always knowing that we will never be angels
Oh no no no

We're no angels
We're no angels
I never claimed to be an angel
No girl, we're no angels
I never ever said I was an angel
Good god girl, we're no angels
Angels
Angels
Angels
Angels
