ANGELS
(Robert Peter Williams / Guy Antony Chambers)

as recorded by Robbie Williams
1997


I sit and wait,
Does an angel contemplate my fate?
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old?
'Cause I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold.
So when I'm lying in my bed,
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel the love is dead,
I'm lovin' angels instead!

And through it all she offers me protection,
A lot of love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong!
And down the waterfall,
Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't break me,
When I come to call she won't forsake me,
I'm lovin' angels instead!

When I'm feeling weak,
And my pain walks down a one way street,
I look above,
And I know I'll always be blessed with love!
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones,
And when love is dead,
I'm lovin' angels instead!

And through it all she offers me protection,
A lot of love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong!
And down the waterfall,
Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't break me,
When I come to call she won't forsake me,
I'm lovin' angels instead!

And through it all she offers me protection,
A lot of love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong!
And down the waterfall,
Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't break me,
When I come to call she won't forsake me,
I'm lovin' angels instead!
