  • Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Do you believe in Heaven above?
    Do you believe in love?
    Don't tell a lie, don't be false or untrue
    It all comes back to you

    Open fire, on my burning heart
    I've never been lucky in love
    My defenses are down
    A kiss or a frown
    I can't survive on my own

    If a girl walks in and draws her name in my heart
    I'll turn and run away
    Everyday we've all been led astray
    It's hard to be lucky in love

    It gets in your eyes, it's making you cry
    Don't know what to do, don't know what to do
    You're looking for love
    Calling Heaven above

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Empty dreams can only disappoint
    In a room behind your smile
    But don't give up, don't give up
    (Give up, give up, give up)
    You can be lucky in love

    It gets in your eyes, it's making you cry
    Don't know what to do, don't know what to do
    You're looking for love
    Calling heaven above

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now

    Send me an angel
    Send me an angel
    Right now, right now
