I saw her first
She came around
The day my angel came to town
This is just a love song
Her shine was white she rode the light
She let her wings go where they might
‘Cos she looked to be a wild one
She just got in my car and said
«Boy drive me to wherever you want»
All I want is an angel
Then I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you
We drove all day we didn’t stop
Along the way until the top
Of the cliff by the sea
She played her tapes of Afghan Whigs
‘Cos that’s the rock and roll she digs
It was all a fantasy
And when the night tumbled down on us
her name was tattooed over ny heart
All I want is an angel
Then I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you
The moon was high and so was I
‘Cos I was drowning in her eyes
And while the waves crashed to the shore
I would politely ask for more
I didn’t even know her name
But frankly that was all the same
Because I just could not believe
That this was happening to me
All I want is an angel
I can hold on a leach
Who will do what I please
All I want is an angel
Just for me
For me
All I want is an angel
Then I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you
