Lyrics
0:20Sometimes I feel like an innocent one
0:24To deserve this fate what I have I ever done
0:29I know that I made all the rules
0:33But time can even change the hopeless ways of fools
0:38I love you tonight like I did yesterday
0:43I won't think of tomorrow or the price I pay
0:48I drink from the well my soul is dry
0:53I never know why
0:56All I want is for your love to be all mine
0:59But the angels won't have it
1:04All I want is just a little peace of mind
1:10But the angels won't have it
1:15I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell
1:21I guess its just as well
1:25Cause the angels won't have it
1:31Whos looking after this see-through heart
1:36Someone up there isnt doing their part
1:41Oh cupid you foolish boy
1:45You should take better aim with your brand new toy
1:50I love you tonight like I did yesterday
1:55I don't think of tomorrow or the price I pay
2:00I drink from the well my soul is dry
2:05I never know why
2:08All I want is for your love to be all mine
2:13But the angels won't have it
2:16All I want is just a little peace of mind
2:22But the angels won't have it
2:28I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell
2:34I guess its just as well
2:38Cause the angels won't have it
2:43So if I die before I wake
2:49The innocent one whose heart could never break
2:53Lift me up take me out of this bed
2:59Watching the angels shake their heads
3:03Don't feel sorry for me baby honey don't you cry
3:08You can sell all of my clothes you will forget me by and by
3:13Ill be riding that train Ill be singing that song
3:18But I won't be gone for long
3:22Cause the angels won't have it
3:31All I want is for your love to be all mine
3:36But the angels won't have it
3:41I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell
3:48I guess its just as well
Sometimes I feel like an innocent one To deserve this fate what I have I ever done I know that I made all the rules But time can even change the hopeless ways of fools I love you tonight like I did yesterday I won't think of tomorrow or the price I pay I drink from the well my soul is dry I never know why All I want is for your love to be all mine But the angels won't have it All I want is just a little peace of mind But the angels won't have it I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell I guess its just as well Cause the angels won't have it Whos looking after this see-through heart Someone up there isnt doing their part Oh cupid you foolish boy You should take better aim with your brand new toy I love you tonight like I did yesterday I don't think of tomorrow or the price I pay I drink from the well my soul is dry I never know why All I want is for your love to be all mine But the angels won't have it All I want is just a little peace of mind But the angels won't have it I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell I guess its just as well Cause the angels won't have it So if I die before I wake The innocent one whose heart could never break Lift me up take me out of this bed Watching the angels shake their heads Don't feel sorry for me baby honey don't you cry You can sell all of my clothes you will forget me by and by Ill be riding that train Ill be singing that song But I won't be gone for long Cause the angels won't have it All I want is for your love to be all mine But the angels won't have it I thought I had a piece of my soul left to sell I guess its just as well
