[Verse 1]
I finally see your face
In my rear-view mirror
With each mile I put between us
The road keeps gettin' clearer
I only wish that I could make a quiet getaway

[Verse 2]
Probably think I'm fooling myself
That I just want to have my fun
But leaving you believe me
Is the first good deed I've done
I'm only want to save you
From more heartache if I stay

[Chorus]
'Cause baby if I, if I, if I were an angel (Yeah)
Baby if I, if I, if I were an angel
Baby if I, if I, if I were an angel
I would have earned my wings today

[Verse 3]
I didn't get a message
From anyone on high
And I don't get instructions
On who to save and why
No heavenly connections sent me down this way
[Chorus]
But baby if I, if I, if I, I were an angel
Baby if I, if I, if I, I were an angel
If I, if I, if I, I were an angel
I, I would have earned my wings today

[Verse 4]
Look up in the sky tonight
That's where I may be
High above the hillside
Far across the sea
And if you hear the church bells ring
Everything's okay

[Chorus]
Baby if I, if I, if I, I were an angel
Baby if I, if I, if I, I were an angel (If I was)
Baby if I, if I, if I, I were an angel
I, I would have earned my wings today (Yeah)
I would have earned my wings today
