[Hook]
Hey Angel!
Won't you shed your wings and stay awhile?
[Verse 1]
I was a reckless total mess
Completely unimpressed
At the life I used to lead
And the others around me, surrounded me
Selfish and unaware
Far from being prepared
You took me down to the ocean till I could see
That you are in my bones like the salt that's in my skin
[Hook]
Hey Angel!
Won't you shed your wings and stay awhile?
[Verse 2]
I know you said don't worry
Don't you worry at all
I'll be there with broken arms
To catch you before you could ever fall
But if the water swallowed you in
(But if the waves) dragged your body out to sea
I'd be the lighthouse on the coastline
With my eyes shining your way home
[Hook]
Hey Angel!
Won't you shed your wings and stay awhile?
[Bridge]
And if the darkness came on too strong
I'd get all of Heaven to sing you a song
Reminding you: you are never alone
If you hold on (and if you hold one) if you hold on
(If you) open your eyes (hold on)
Nothing is as bad as you feared (hold on)
Raise your head to the skies (hold on)
I'm in the stars wishing you were here
[Bridge 2]
Seraphim will sing you home tonight
Angel wings will be your guiding light
If you hold on, If you hold on (not giving up)
Seraphim will sing you home tonight
Angel wings will be your guiding light
If you hold on, if you hold on
[Hook]
Hey Angel!
Won't you shed your wings and stay awhile?
[Hook 2]
Hey Angel! I'd drown in the darkest sea
Just to see you smile, just to see you smile
