I Could Use An Angel Lyrics by John Hiatt

I Could Use An Angel Lyrics

    Who tipped you off
    How could she betray me
    These hungry fingers
    They found us guilty for love
    And she said her lips were sealed
    Easing my conscience

    Now what has been done
    That you were the first one to know
    I thought we were sleeping
    Who said that dreams don't come true?
    This was her dream for revenge
    She had to tell you

    Chorus:
    I could use an angel
    Can't refuse an angel
    Got business with an angel
    She was no angel

    Wearing that coat
    You look like an amateur spy
    How come you're not angry?
    She wore your heart like a charm
    A bracelet of boys on her wrist
    Why aren't you angry?

    Here on my bed
    Tears on my bed
    Mixed with the dust
    Of things that she said
    Burning a trust
    Like a salt burns the wound
    Like a capsule burns up
    When it enters the atmosphere
    Were you consumed
    From the takeoff of this doomed mission

    Chorus

    I guess we must be brothers
    We share a common traitor
    We cancel each other
    Hoisting her elevator

    I never meant to hurt you
    I'll never be converted
    I want the host of angels

    Chorus
