She wakes up early,
coffee in hand
I'm chasing shadows,
midnight man
She's got a smile that could outshine the
stars I've got a past that's riddled with scars
She's too sweet,
too sweet for me
An undercover angel, can't you see?
On whiskey nights,
she's sold a dream We're different animals torn at the seam
She hums in sunlight,
a melody bright I brood in corners,
lost in the night
She sees the silver where I see the gray
She paints the world while I let it decay
She whispers hope,
I shout regret Her glass is full,
mine's just upset
She's too sweet,
too sweet for me
An undercover angel, can't you see?
On whiskey nights,
she's sold a dream We're different animals torn at the seam
I've made mistakes that I can't erase
She's a mirror showing me my better face
She loves the morning,
I love the dark Somehow she's lit a flame in my heart
She's too sweet,
too sweet for me
An undercover angel, can't you see?
On whiskey nights,
she's sold a dream
We're different animals torn at the seam
We're different animals torn at the seam
