If I Were an Angel

I finally see your face In my rear-view mirror With each mile I put between us The road keeps gettin’ clearer I only wish that I could make a quiet getaway Well you probably think I’m foolin’ myself That I just want to have my fun But leavin’ you believe me Is the first good deed I’ve done I’m only tryin’ to save us from more heartache if I stay Cause baby if I, if I, if I were an angel If I, if I, if I were an angel I would have earned my wings today I didn’t get a message From anyone on high And I dont get instructions On who to save and why No heavenly connections sent me down this way But baby if I, if I, if I were an angel If I, if I, if I were an angel I would have earned my wings today So look up in the sky tonight Thats where I may be High over the hillsides Far across the sea And if you hear the churchbells ring Everything’s okay Cause baby if I, if I, if I were an angel I would have earned my wings today
