Angel's Cry
Mariah Carey琀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I would've stayed if you'd say
We could've made everything okay, but we just
Threw the blame back and forth, we treated love like a sport
The final blow hit so low, I'm still on the ground
I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall
Shattered in pieces, curled on the floor
Used to touch the sky
And lighting don't strike
The same place twice, when you and I
Said goodbye I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift,
But we let it drift in a storm
Every night I feel the angels cry
C'mon babe, can't our love be revived?
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
I'm on the edge, just tryin' to survive
As the angels cry
Limitless omnipresent, kind of love
Couldn't have guessed it would just stop and disappear
In a whirlwind
Here I am walkin' on this narrow rope wobbling
But won't let go, waitin' for a glimpse of the sun's glow
I know I can stand just pull me back up
Like there ain't no hurricane it's just us
I'm willing to live and die for our love
Baby, we can get back that shine
'Cause lighting don't strike, the same place twice
When you and i, said goodbye, I felt the angels cry
'Cause true love's a gift, but we let it drift, in a storm
Every night, I feel the angels cry
C'mon babe, can't our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
I'm on the edge, just tryin' to survive
As the angels cry
Baby, I'm missin' you, don't allow love to lose (don't let our love)
We gotta ride it through
I'm reaching for you (baby I'm missin' you)
Baby, I'm missin' you, don't allow love to lose (you can)
We gotta ride it through, (we gotta ride it)
I'm reaching for you (and I'm gonna say)
Ou lighting don't strike, the same place twice
You and i, said goodbye, felt the angels cry
'Cause true love's a gift, we let it slip, in a storm
Every night, I feel the angels cry
Oh babe don't let the angels cry
In the song "Angel's Cry", Mariah Carey sings about a lost love and a relationship that ended in a storm. The lyrics express regret for walking away from the relationship and not being able to save it. The song begins with Mariah stating that she could have stayed if her partner had said they could work things out instead of throwing blame back and forth like a game. She then reflects on how shattered she feels after the relationship ended and how the love she and her partner once shared conquered all. However, now, they're just trying to survive, and every night Mariah feels the angels cry because they lost something special.
Mariah Carey uses a metaphor to explain the extent of the love she and her partner once shared. She describes it as supernatural and capable of conquering all obstacles. Still, she could not have predicted it would disappear so suddenly as if it was caught in a whirlwind. The lyrics express Mariah's willingness to fight for her love and how she's just waiting for a glimpse of hope, but she can't let go. She then stresses that true love is a gift, but they let it slip away in the storm, emphasizing that love requires constant care and attention. The chorus repeats how lightning doesn't strike the same place twice and how Mariah felt the angels cry when their relationship fell apart. She then urges her partner to revive their love and bring back the shine they once had.
Line by Line Meaning
I shouldn't have walked away
I regret leaving and wish I had stayed
I would've stayed if you'd say
If you had asked me to stay, I would have
We could've made everything okay, but we just
We had the potential to fix things, but instead
Threw the blame back and forth, we treated love like a sport
We played games with each other and didn't take responsibility for our actions
The final blow hit so low, I'm still on the ground
The last argument was particularly hurtful and I am still affected by it
I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall
I never could have predicted how hard this breakup would hit me
Shattered in pieces, curled on the floor
I am completely broken and defeated
Super natural love conquers all, remember we
Our love was special and powerful, let's not forget
Used to touch the sky
Our love was once so high and full of hope
And lighting don't strike
It's rare for something to happen twice in the same way
The same place twice, when you and I
When we said goodbye
Said goodbye I felt the angels cry
Our love was so special, even the angels were mourning its end
True love's a gift,
Real love is a blessing
But we let it drift in a storm
But we let it get lost in the chaos of our arguments
Every night I feel the angels cry
I still feel the pain of losing our love every single night
C'mon babe, can't our love be revived?
Let's try to bring our love back to life
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
If we work together we can fix things
I'm on the edge, just tryin' to survive
I feel like I'm barely holding on and need your help to keep me from falling
Limitless omnipresent, kind of love
Our love was powerful and all-encompassing
Couldn't have guessed it would just stop and disappear
I never imagined our love could just disappear like this
In a whirlwind
It all happened so fast
Here I am walkin' on this narrow rope wobbling
I feel like I'm barely holding on and could fall at any moment
But won't let go, waitin' for a glimpse of the sun's glow
But I'm determined to hold on and hopeful for a brighter future
I know I can stand just pull me back up
I know I have the strength to keep going, but I need your help to get back on my feet
Like there ain't no hurricane it's just us
We can overcome anything as long as we work together
I'm willing to live and die for our love
I am committed to doing whatever it takes to save our relationship
'Cause lighting don't strike, the same place twice
It's rare for something to happen twice in the same way
Baby, I'm missin' you, don't allow love to lose (don't let our love)
I miss you so much, let's not let our love fade away
We gotta ride it through
We need to stick it out and work through our problems
I'm reaching for you (baby I'm missin' you)
I'm doing everything I can to reach you and save our relationship
Oh babe don't let the angels cry
Let's not let the end of our love be a tragedy, we can still turn things around
