Angel Baby
Troye Sivan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need a lover to keep me sane
Pull me from hell, bring me back again
Play me the classics, something romantic
Give him my all when I don't even have it
I always dreamed of a solemn face
Someone who feels like a holiday
But now I'm in pieces, barely believing
Starting to think that I've lost all feeling

You came out the blue on a rainy night, no lie
I tell you how I almost died while you're bringing me back to life

I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started givin' up on the word forever
Until you gave up heaven so we could be together

You're my angel, angel baby
Angel, you're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby

I'll fall in love with the little things
Counting the tattoos on your skin
Tell me a secret and baby, I'll keep it
And maybe we can play house for the weekend

You came out the blue on a rainy night, no lie
I'll tell you how I almost died while you're bringing me back to life

I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started giving up on the word forever
Until you gave up heaven so we could be together

You're my angel, angel baby
Angel, you're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby

All the sick and twisted nights that I've been waiting for you
They were worth it all along, yeah

I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started giving up on the word forever (ooh, forever)
Until you gave up heaven so we could be together

You're my angel, angel baby
Angel, you're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby
Angel, angel baby
Angel, you're my angel, baby




Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby

I need a lover to keep me sane
Pull me from hell, bring me back again
Play me the classics
Something romantic
Give him my all when I don't even have it
I always dreamed of a solemn face
Someone who feels like a holiday
But now I'm in pieces
Barely believing
Starting to think that I've lost all feeling
You came out the blue on a rainy night
No lie
I'll tell you how I almost died
While you're bringing me back to life
I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started giving up on the word "forever"
Until you gave up heaven, so we could be together
You're my angel
Angel baby, angel
You're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby
I fall in love with the little things
Counting the tattoos on your skin
Tell me a secret
And baby, I'll keep it
And maybe we could play house for the weekend
You came out the blue on a rainy night
No lie
I'll tell you how I almost died
While you're bringing me back to life
I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started giving up on the word "forever"
Until you gave up heaven, so we could be together
You're my angel
Angel baby, angel
You're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby
All the sick and twisted nights that I've been waiting for ya
They were worth it all along, yeah
I just wanna live in this moment forever
'Cause I'm afraid that living couldn't get any better
Started giving up on the word "forever" (on the word "forever")
Until you gave up heaven, so we could be together
You're my angel
Angel baby, angel
You're my angel, baby
Baby, you're my angel
Angel baby
Angel
Angel baby, angel (you're my angel, baby)
You're my angel, baby (you're my angel, baby)
Baby, you're my angel

Went from
"If I'm losing a piece of me,
maybe I don't want heaven..."
to
"...Started giving up on the world forever,
until you gave up heaven so we could be together."

@DAZEDLY

i remember i was about 9 when i knew i liked boys. even at a young age, i couldn’t accept that fact because the world told me that it’s unnatural and wrong. i absolutely hated myself because i was gay and tried my ALL to change my sexuality. (A KID, hating themselves over something that’s immutable)

over the years of coming to terms with my sexuality, i’ve grown to love it. if you told my younger self that i accepted my sexuality, i would’ve laughed and thought you were joking! it took a while to get here but here i am.

seeing videos like this and representation like this makes me love myself even more. hell, seeing gay couples in real life and online when i was a teen made it a lot easier to come to terms with my sexuality. i felt normal for once, every time i saw them.

i’m not ashamed to admit that i love guys. it feels great knowing that kids nowadays are growing up in a world where people are more tolerant and accepting. i mean, i’m not old, only in my 20s, but the world has definitely come a long way!

either way, such a beautiful video!

Being gay and confident at the same time is not easy. He's not only showing that he's gay, he's expressing himself with freedom. He's not ashamed at all. I find this very important because it's unusual in mainstream artists. Also, the song is a masterpiece, i love it. So thank you Troye Sivan, you're doing amazing.

@willmarvin9018

I agree , he is his true self
