Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
‘ Cause it looks like I love you but it feels just like goodbye
I know that something’s wrong but I can’t pretend to know why
I gotta be honest baby it scares me sometimes
There’s an angel in your eyes
Must’ve come down from the sky
And I hate to see you cry
There’s an angel in your eyes
Baby the more you fight it the more I see it in your eyes
That you smile like a mother but you cry just like a child
But underneath the sadness I see a sparkle in your eyes
And when I see the angel smiling it looks like a child
Baby trust the feeling of your heartbeat
Baby trust the love we feel inside
I will spend my life with you
I don’t have to think it through
My angel from the sky
How I hate to see you cry
No more chances no more lies
I see it in your eyes
There’s an angel in your eyes
