Jewel - Angel Needs A Ride lyrics

Said, "angel, do you want a ride?" Said, "angel, i'm tired and i'm lonely And i need somebody by my side" It's a long road that stretched from vegas to nowhere But it'd been an even longer time Since he found some piece of mind And he lived off of bubblegum and cigarettes And got his nourishment from all-night stores Thought he'd just keep driving Til he outdrove his sorrow He said, "angel, oh do you want a ride?" Said "angel, i'm tired and i'm lonely And i need somebody by my side" Her feet were warm and tired But as determined as a soul She left with no regrets But also no posessions did she own Her heart was as fragile as her thin, loving arms She's praying to god to take away her lonely When he pulled on aside of the road And he said, "angel, oh do you want a ride?" Said, "angel, i'm tired and i'm lonely And i need somebody by my side" The highway goes on forever I've seen a thousand men like him before And i've seen a thousand angels that Got into the car They're just a couple of lost souls Looking to rekindle some sort of forgotten dream I hope they find what they're looking for In the solace of the road They said, "angel, do you want a ride?" Said, "angel, i'm tired and i'm lonely I'm tired and i'm lonely I'm tired and i'm lonely I'm tired and i'm lonely And i need to have somebody By my angel"
