Sending Me Angels

(album: Angel Heart - 1992)

I walked down to the river
Stood on the shore
Seems like the devil's always
Trying to get in my door
Just when I thought
I couldn't take anymore
You come again, my friend

He keeps sending me angels
From up on high
He keeps sending me angels
Teach me to fly
He keeps sending me angels
Sweet and true
He keeps sending me angels
Just like you

As I stand on this mountain
Face to the wind
Amazed by the number of times
You go and sin
The countless enemies
That could've been friends
Oh here he comes again

[Chorus 1:]
He keeps sending me angels
Here they come a flying
He keeps sending me angels
To keep me from crying
(He keeps) Sending me angels
So I'll never he blue
He keeps sending me angels
Just like you

He keeps sending me angels
From up on high
He keeps sending me angels
Teach me to fly
He keeps sending me angels
So I'll never be blue
He keeps sending me angels
Just like you

Some say that it's coming
Say it's already here
But love is among us
Through the joy and the fear
When I look in your eyes
Everything is so clear
My friend, here it comes again

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
He keeps sending me angels
From up on high
He keeps sending me angels
To teach me to fly
He keeps sending me angels
Sweet and true
(He keeps) Sending me angels

[Chorus 2]

Sending me angels
Here they come a flying
Sending me angels
Keep me from crying
Sending me angels
So I'll never be blue
Sending me angels...
