I saw you today she's lovely you're such a heavenly pair
you hope and you pray someday she'll take you all the way there
you should know better darling when push comes to shove
angels don't fall in love

You stand at the gate hoping to gain admission
how long are you willing to wait she won't give permission tonight
you should know better darling when push comes to shove
angels don't fall in love no no no

You got your higher aim got your ambition
you think you're spiritual and on some mission
I can see it when I look in your eyes when you
think of love you think of compromise

It's no big disgrace there's no loss of grace
the trouble is there's always someone there to take your place
and the trouble is you don't believe that it's true
when the sun goes down there's something left for you

The trouble is I see you missing so much
while you're knocking on the wrong door for some angel's touch
you think she's everything you're dreaming of
the trouble is those angels never fall in love
