Angels Were Gone

[Verse 1]

You're the slow dance for these cowboy boots

The top shelf for my hundred proof

The last thing I could stand to lose right now

And I was every lonesome shade of lost

Far from Heaven but thank God

You were flying too close to the ground

You got me high enough to slow me down


[Chorus]

I've had heartbreaks and highways

I've been midnight whiskey stoned

And found some friends in low places just to wake up all alone

I've gone seven kinds of crazy

I was thinking it was way too late to save me

Baby, 'til you came along

And loved the hell out of me

When I thought all my angels were gone


[Verse 2]

Girl, I don't know what you've seen

To make you wrap me in your wings

But damn, I hope you never let me go

'Cause laying here with you tonight

Makes my wrong feel so right

Got me thinking I might just be home


[Chorus]

I've had heartbreaks and highways

I've been midnight whiskey stoned

And found some friends in low places just to wake up all alone

I've gone seven kinds of crazy

I was thinking it was way too late to save me

Baby, 'til you came along

And loved the hell out of me

When I thought all my angels were gone


[Bridge]

Like the dust in the wind

You feel like a thousand prayers from where I've been


[Chorus]

I've had heartbreaks and highways

I've been midnight whiskey stoned

And found some friends in low places just to wake up all alone

I've gone seven kinds of crazy

I was thinking it was way too late to save me

Baby, 'til you came along

And loved the hell out of me

When I thought all my angels were gone

Yeah, you loved the hell out of me

When I thought all my angels were gone
