Lyrics
I CAN?T BE YOUR ANGEL
Don?t put your faith in me
I might not be all you want me to be
I?m no saviour and I?m no saint
Don?t look to me to protect your fate
Don?t lean on me with too much weight
I did not come here to rescue you
I?m not the answer to your prayers
And when you need me I might not be there
I can?t be your angel
I?m not here to save you
I can?t be the one who watches over you
Cause I?m not your angel
I?m not your angel
Don?t wait for me to set you free
Don?t rest all your hopes and dreams with me
I?m no healer and I?m not heaven sent
Don?t depend on me to light your way
Don?t ask for words I don?t know how to say
I was not sent here
To make all your dreams come true
There?s no halo, there?s no glow
And there?s no wisdom I need to bestow
CHORUS
Are you praying for answers, a miracle cure
Wishing for something to make you feel pure
You wait for solutions from above to be found
Someone from heaven to fall to the ground
CHORUS
