Misguided angel


I said "Mama, he's crazy and he scares me
But I want him by my side
though he's wild and he's bad
and sometimes just plain mad
I need him to keep me satisfied"

I said "Papa, don't cry cause it's alright
And I see you in some of his ways
Though he might not give me the life that you wanted
I'll love him the rest of my days"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

I said "Brother, you speak to me of passion
You said never to settle for nothing less
Well, it's in the way he walks,
it's in the way he talks
His smile, his anger and his kisses"

I said "Sister, don't you understand?
He's all I ever wanted in a man
I'm tired of sittin' around the T.V. every night
Hoping I'm finding a Mr. Right"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

He says "Baby, don't listen to what they say
There comes a time when you have to break away"
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life
It's time to let them go and become my wife"

Misguided angel hangin' over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer
Black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you 'til I'm dead

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Cowboy Junkies are a Canadian country rock band formed in Toronto in 1985. The founding members are siblings Margo (vocals), Michael (guitar, songwriter) and Peter Timmins (drums), along with their longtime friend Alan Anton (bass). The band's name is likely inspired by Townes Van Zandt's song "Cowboy Junkies Lament", although the track was written in 1989, after the band's formation. The Cowboy Junkies are known for their introspective and melancholic sound, influenced by American folk and traditional country. Among their most important albums is "The Trinity Session" (1988), a highly successful record that cemented the band's international recognition. Other representative tracks include "Sweet Jane", "If You Really Want To Know" and "A Common Disaster".
