lyrics

If you’re feeling blue if you’re feeling down
Just reach for me and I’ll bring you round
I can make you high, I can make you smile
But I can only stay for a little while
Your friends will tell you lies about me
But you know I can set you free
So open up your arms and let me through
I am an angel and my eyes are blue

Push me in, I’l go around, I’ll be your friend tonight
I promise you my eyes are blue, your angel’s here tonight

If you’re feeling blue if you’re feeling down
Just reach for me and I’ll bring you round
I’ll be inside your head to give you advice
I can make it so good I can make it so nice
Darkness will cover my intentions true
I will always seem so right for you
Just open up your veins and let me through
I promise I’m an angel & my eyes are blue

If you need some cash if you need a car
You’ll find everything you want at my favourite bar
I can make all your dreams come true
And I know you’ll do anything I ask you to
But I crawl on my belly when the earth is cold
Starring role in the greatest story ever told
Your friends will raise their shields it’s true
But I’m a black angel and I’ll still get through

So just push me I’ll go around and around and I’ll be your friend tonight
Your angel’s here with a cure for you and I’ll be your friend tonight
Would I lie to you, you know it’s true, your only friend tonight
I’m just a fiend tonight, your angel’s her tonight, this could be the end tonight
