Glen Ballard - Angel lyrics

[Verse 1] I call you up You pick up You call my bluff On the cards of love You hold to close Your hands to your chest I can't read your eyes But I confess It's lonely far from you Even when you're right by me It's only why I wait for you Take my hand yeah [Chorus] Why do I beg like a child For your candy Why do I come after you Like I do I love you Whatever you are I swear You'll be my angel You [Verse 2] I play my cards Best I can But I lose my luck When you're not here My darling heart Won't you please give in I may be strong But I want you back again When you're not here It's hard to pretend It's all alright Again When you're not here love It's hard to pretend It's all alright....still [Chorus] [Bridge] Watch the deck Count your cards Makes no sense That I'm always losing When you're gone [Chorus]
