My Angel's Gettin' Tired

I know it's not the first time
I've been on my knees before
And I know I swore last time
I won't be drinking anymore

Lord, I must confess
I fell a time or two
And I know with every swallow
I took another piece of you

My angel's gettin' tired
Of always hangin' ' round
And although she's got wings to fly
I've kept her on the ground

When I look into her loving eyes
I see the distant fire
She's still holding on
But my angel's gettin' tired

I had your forgiveness
And that still amazes me
Your love held us together
But this time how can it be?

That you still love me, angel
And believe I'll see the light
Oh, and I can see the damage
Of so many sleepless nights

My angel's gettin' tired
Of always hangin' ' round
And although she's got wings to fly
I've kept her on the ground

When I look into her loving eyes
I see the distant fire
She's still holding on
But my angel's gettin' tired
My angel's gettin' tired
