Angel Like You - Eric Strickland and the B Sides

I don't know what on Earth I'd do without an angel like you I'd be lost like a ship at sea that took a wrong turn in the dark Could put a pen to the story of my life, but never know where to start I'd be skipping days and slipping through the nights without feeling a thing If you weren't here putting me right, what would my life mean? I don't know what on Earth I'd do without an angel like you Caught in a fire so hot without the rain to make it stop They would paint me a fool in a world that's so cruel Would be hell to go through without an angel like you All I need is a shot of your smile to chase the blues away And anybody else woulda give it up, you're the kind of love that stays All of that time I was looking for you, I knew there had to be a plan And I get everything I ever wanted in life when you tell me I'm a good man I don't know what on Earth I'd do without an angel like you Caught in a fire so hot without the rain to make it stop They would paint me a fool in a world that's so cruel Would be hell to go through without an angel like you I don't know what on Earth I'd do without an angel like you Caught in a fire so hot without the rain to make it stop They would paint me a fool in a world that's so cruel Would be hell to go through without an angel like you I don't know what on Earth I'd do without an angel like you Yeah

Can't believe how much has changed in only half a year Can't believe you never saw the summer There's so much more to tell you, so I talk to you sometimes Especially when I'm watering your flowers I was oh so lucky to know someone like you I cherish every moment that we shared Everybody has an angel just like you Someone watching over us who's gone too soon Someone with the answer when we don't know where to turn For every missing person in the world There's an angel just like you, just like you I can hear you whisper, feel it beating in the wind Won't you come and wrap your wings around me? I wish I could be brave like you And hold back all these tears that fill my eyes Grieve is like an ocean trying to drown me Everybody has an angel just like you Someone watching over us who's gone too soon Someone with the answer when we don't know where to turn For every missing person in the world There's an angel just like you, just like you My head is full of memories that nothing can erase I close my eyes and see your smiling face Everybody has an angel just like you Someone watching over us who's gone too soon Someone with the answer when we don't know where to turn For every missing person in the world There's an angel just like you, just like you, ooh An angel just like you, an angel just like you

Well it's getting late, it's getting dark And there's light showing up from a million stars The clouds are heavy I think the light Is coming from you It's been raining for a month it seems But in here it's warm as kerosene Cuz all the tears are from the sky this time and not your eyes But as time starts going by And my adrenaline fades, I'll still chase that life When a guy like me begs for An Angel like you Beat up, broken down, down, down is gonna have to do Don't mind me I'm just tryna cross your view I just want to be something to an Angel like you It's so innocent, a washed kind of red Like a light love song that won't leave your head Did I ever tell you darling that's my favorite kind? I feel like I know a lot about you Like where your mama's from, your favorite things to do But let me tell you a little bit about myself I won't ever quit Running your way like I've been heaven sent When a guy like me begs for An Angel like you Beat up, broken down, down, down is gonna have to do Don't mind me I'm just tryna cross your view I just want to be something to an Angel like you And I see you try so hard To be too good for a less-than-average heart When a guy like me begs for An Angel like you Beat up, broken down, down, down is gonna have to do Don't mind me I'm just tryna cross your view I just want to be something to an Angel like you An Angel like you

Just 'cause I'm from nothin' don't mean I'm Nothin' Small town boy with big town dreams Chasin' rainbows 'neath the neon Ain't as easy as it seems Put your heart into the music You pour your soul into your songs Then you realize they just don't get it And you're out there all alone Standin' in the headlights of a fast movin' train Never know which way to turn to get out of the rain Try to tell you how to walk, how to talk and sing It's like standin' in the headlights of a fast movin' train Your backstage pass ain't worth a nickle Your front row seat ain't worth a dime You start to feel like you just can't take it And it's always the time Standin' in the headlights of a fast movin' train Never know which way to turn to get out of the rain Try to tell you how to walk, how to talk and sing It's like standin' in the headlights of a fast movin' train Chasin' rainbows 'neath the neon Ain't as easy as it seems
