Send Me an Angel Lyrics

It's the end, I'm not gonna cry
I don't miss my water 'til the well runs dry
Didn't I tell you?
I will walk alone on this land
She says I'm gonna fool no one
You can't run away from feeling an emotion
And it gets harder
And I don't think she understands

I can't cry for no one
'Cos I'm not able
And I will walk alone
And if I start complaining
Send me an angel
Before I fade away
(Come on, come on)

Send me an angel - tell me where I've been going
Send me an angel - I can't cry for no one
Send me an angel - Should I change my way this time around?

Tell me please, what I'm gonna do
It's just like everything you told me has come true
Now I worry
I'll be left alone, I fear
Now I see everything I've done
The way I tried to live my life was an illusion
Now I'm sorry
Whoever wants to know, I'm here
Got a heart so heavy
I'm in a tangle
Don't know if I'll survive
And each night I'm praying
Send me an angel
Before I fade away
(Come on, come on)

Send me an angel - tell me where I've been going
Send me an angel - I can't cry for no one
Send me an angel - Should I change my way this time around?

Send me an angel - 'cos I'm through with pretending
Send me an angel - I gotta cry for somebody baby, oh yeah
Send me an angel - oh, got to try to change my way this time around, oh
Send me an angel - somebody better tell me where I'm going wrong
Send me an angel - Have I been this way for much too long?
Send me an angel - oh, I gotta sit, think, what to do, baby now
Get things straight, na na na, oh (change my way this time)
Send me an angel - I need an angel, yeah yeah, help me with a problem
Send me an angel - I gotta change my silly ways, oh, this time around

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
