It's been five months since you went away Left without a word and nothing to say When I was the one who gave you my heart and soul But it wasn't good enough for you So I ask God God, send me an angel From the heavens above Send me an angel to heal my broken heart for being in love All I do, is cry Send me an angel to wipe the tears from my eyes I know I may sound crazy But after all that I still love you You want to come back in my life But now there's something I have to do I have to tell the one I once adore That they can't have my love no more My heart can't take no more lies And my eyes are all out of cries God, send me an angel From the heavens above Send me an angel to heal my broken heart for being in love All I do, is cry Send me an angel to wipe the tears from my eyes Now you have me on my knees Begging God please to send you back to me I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, You made me feel like I could not breathe When all I wanted to do was feel your touch And to give you all my love But you took my love for granted Want my loving now, but you can't have it Oh God God, send me an angel From the heavens above Send me an angel to heal my broken heart for being in love All I do, is cry Send me an angel to wipe the tears from my eyes Oh God God, send me an angel From the heavens above Send me an angel to heal my broken heart for being in love All I do, is cry Send me an angel to wipe the tears from my eyes
