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
