He drove away, I couldn't move First bitter taste of what love can do I sat on that porch, alone and cried It hurt so bad, I could have died Then mama came out, wrapped her arms around me Told me, God has someone better for me Dried my tears and she just held me That's what angels do, that's what love is for To point you to a window when you can't find the door When you're all out of faith, it's more than you can take When you're not strong enough, you need someone to pull you through That's what angels do, that's what angels do Big city streets, bright city lights Some days the dreams, not worth the fight This is my hometown, wide open space A clear blue sky, a slower pace Then my phone rings and I hear his voice Say, baby girl, I'm proud of you, you're not alone He gives me hope, he lifts me up That's what angels do, that's what love is for To point you to a window when you can't find the door When you're all out of faith, it's more than you can take When you're not strong enough, you need someone to pull you through That's what angels do When you're all out of faith, it's more than you can take When you're not strong enough, you need someone to pull you through That's what angels do That's what angels do When there's no way on earth you can make it worth That's what angels do That's what angels do *
