angels

words and music by robbie williams 1999

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
'cause i have been told
that salvation lets their wings unfold
so when i'm lying in my bed
thoughts running through my head
and i feel that love is dead
i'm loving angels instead

chorus
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 won't break me
when i come to call
she won't 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 i'll always be
blessed with love
and as the feeling grows
she brings flesh to my bones
and when love is dead
i'm loving angels instead
