The night a sinner kissed an angel, Stars in the sky were dancing One night perfect for romancing, He wanted thrills, she wanted love, Oh but his sighs were tender As he begged her to surrender, And she believed that it was love. How was she to know that

And oh my God, I can't believe it I've never been this far away from home It don't matter to me 'Cause all I wanted to be Somewhere more familiar Was a million miles from here Time on your side that will never end The most beautiful thing you can ever

And I wanted to be I wanted to be Your good friend Well it's all in your mind It's all in your mind Wanted to be Well I cannot believe You got a devil up your sleeve And he's talking to me

Rise to the top of the world, America America, don't you cry Give me strength to press on Feel you close like you wanted me to Believe in you Is this just an illusion That I made inside my head to get me by? Twenty years in debt

If I wanted, I could take you from your man (please believe it) With my eyes closed, I could have you eating out the palm of my hand And all your little girlfriends, too (No you can't, you're a playa, I don't want you) Yes I can, and I will if I, if I

Sometimes I feel It's just a warning, it's all a warning sign It's just a warning, just a warning sign And we're done, and we're done And we're done, leave it right now Silver tongue told me to believe in the truth, Cos I'm young he won't let it go

At the howling wind You know he got the cure You know he went astray He used to stay awake To drive the dreams he had away He wanted to believe In the hands of love His head it felt heavy As he cut across the land

I lie here alone and wonder why That I come alive, just before I have to hide. Because I believe I'm losing my nerve But could I ever do better than this Because all I ever wanted was a place to call my home To shelter me when I am there and to miss me

All I am, all I have Leads me down these roads again Take my hand, show me the way I wanted to believe in all of this And I wanted to believe in you (You believed in me) And never bring me back here These are my unanswered prayers The time has come for me

I didn't know what to say I never wanted to see you walk away Are you looking for love? (Are you looking for love?) Once I thought that life was easy I thought love would be enough Now I can't believe I'm on my own I'm leaving on a jet plane I'll wait in
