[Verse 1]
Does your halo grow heavy
Hanging over your head?
Boy, you've held my heart steady
Since the first day we met
Every time I lose my way
Only you can bring me back
'Cause your will just don't break
You keep this train on its tracks

[Chorus]
Under the wings of an angel
Where my weary heart can sleep
I can close my eyes without thinking twice
'Cause my soul's been set free
Under the wings of an angel
Heaven comes to me
The pearly gates are open wide
To eternity

[Verse 2]
As the years have grown longer
The shelves are full of dust
And our love is now stronger
Than the two of us
And the memories on the wall
The colors faded away
I could relive them all
Till my dying day
[Chorus]
Under the wings of an angel
Where my weary heart can sleep
I can close my eyes without thinking twice
'Cause my soul's been set free
Under the wings of an angel
Heaven comes to me
The pearly gates are open wide
To eternity
Yeah the pearly gates are open wide
To eternity

[Bridge]
When the nights are growing colder
We can just stay right here
You take the weight off my shoulders
You make the world disappear

[Chorus]
Under the wings of an angel
Where my weary heart can sleep
I can close my eyes without thinking twice
'Cause my soul's been set free
Under the wings of an angel
Heaven comes to me
The pearly gates are open wide
To eternity
I said the pearly gates are open wide
To eternity
