Lyrics
I Think I Saw an Angel Cryin Tonight

Turn your head look around
Theirs a cold dark shadow washin over us
Can?t you see
And a life so taken for granted
Will never more touch you and me
Heaven didn?t need another angel
Now it?s up to you and me
Chorus
We better listen
We better learn
Theirs no bridges left to burn
(theirs no time left to burn)
Take your position
Make up your plan
Cause friends its all in our hands
Cause I think I saw an angel Cryin tonight
Will another life be taken for granted
Will the memory just fade away
Will that love we felt all around us
Last past those sweet yesterdays
Heaven didn?t need another angel
Now it?s up to you and me
Chorus
