Angels Like Her

The sunbeam hit the Jim Beam and ricocheted off a bottle of Coke.
Cut through the still smoulderin' second-hand night-before smoke.
The whisky's half-empty, half in me, my enemy an' my friend.
Well, last night drowned my sorrows, but today is tomorrow again.

When you fall for an angel like her,
You're walkin' on clouds.
When you're in love, you're so up,
You forget to look down.
The higher an' higher she took me,
The further I fell.
An' it's angels like her,
That send guys like me straight to hell.

There's a ring in her forehead on the picture where the bottle sat last night.
It might look like a halo, but I know it's a trick of the light.
Oooh, that smile on her face has a way to fool any old fool.
Yeah, she came straight from Heaven but I know the devil did too.

When you fall for an angel like her,
You're walkin' on clouds.
Yeah, when you're in love, you're so up,
You forget to look down.
An' the higher an' higher she took me,
The further I fell.
An' it's angels like her,
That send guys like me straight to hell.

Yeah, the higher an' higher she took me,
The further I fell.
An' it's angels like her,
That send guys like me straight to hell.
