AN ANGEL CRIES Sometimes I wish it were yesterday When I felt she was all mine I never thought it could slip away With the blink of an eye We were one in a dream, oh In a moment that felt so right But sometimes we change And sometimes we make mistakes that we can't erase Today she told me she's been okay But her eyes never could lie Could it be just one of those days Or maybe he's crossed the line Somehow, she's not the same I know that he's to blame I know she tries to hide The heartache she denies Somehow I just can tell She fakes that smile 'cause I know when the moon comes around [CHORUS] An angel cries She calls me late in the night I know she's hurting inside Although she tells me she's doing fine My angel cries I tell her it's not too late I'll come and take her away I'd never treat her the way he does So many times I've heard people talk Of the noises behind the walls They know the secrets behind the shades And I hope for his sake they're wrong Sometimes I wish it were yesterday But she had to let go, she should've never let go Somehow, she's not the same I know that he's to blame I know she tries to hide The heartache she denies Somehow I just can tell She fakes that smile 'cause I know when the moon comes around [CHORUS] But sometimes we change And no one's to blame So many times I've said to myself If she would just let me take her away She'd walk out the door But deep down I know When the morning comes She'll be back in his hands again [CHORUS]
