I used to watch her sleep an angel on vacation
I fell in love so deep far too far to mention
She looked just like a thousand stars
When they came out at night
But when I looked inside her heart
I found it locked up tight

Oh angels never help you
'Cause angels always fall

She smoked a cigarette 
It only blurred my vision 
I couldn't help but stay 
With my first impression 
I'm wondering with every breath 
What caused my fall from grace 
I guess I beat myself to death 
Against her lovely face

Oh angels never help you
'Cause angels always fall

And angels (it's simply that I never knew her) 
Sometimes kiss you (wish to God that I had known)
Oh but angels (but everything that I remember) 
Never call (is gone) 

Oh angels (it's simply that I never knew her) 
Never help you (wish to God that I had known) 
Cause angels (but everything that I remember) 
Always fall (is gone) 

And angels (it's simply that I never knew her) 
Sometimes kiss you (wish to God that I had known) 
Oh but angels (but everything that I remember) 
Never call (is gone)
