I don't claim to be an angel
My life's been full of sin
But when I met you darling
That all came to an end

Never doubt my love dear
Whatever you may do
I don't claim to be an angel
But my love for you is true

You'll hear talk around town
Of things I used to do
Some will try to poison your mind
That my love can't be true

Many nights I lay awake dear
Hoping our love will last
Wondering if your love is strong enough
To forget about my past

I don't claim to be an angel...

I never knew what real love was
Till you came along
You changed my outlook on life
Made me regret my wrongs
Why should my past keep haunting me
All through the years
I paid for each mistake
With millions of bitter tears

I don't claim to be an angel...
