Chris Rea
"God Gave Me An Angel"

I was never born with the face of a
movie star
I was never blessed with an easyload
along the way
I have taken the wrong turning
So many times I can't remember
But one thing I have for sure
I can always smile and say

God gave me an angel with a smiling
face
God gave me an angel this I know
My churches are all empty and I'm guilty
every day
But god gave me an angel anyway

Talk of being good and what became of
me
Do I hide my head in shame and turn
away
I have taken the wrong turning
So many times I can't remember
But one thing I have for sure
I can always smile and say

But God gave me an angel with a smiling
face
God gave me an angel this I know
My churches are all empty and I'm guilty
every day
But god gave me an angel anyway
