If I Were an Angel

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
 Well you probably think I'm foolin' myself
 That I just want to have my fun
 But leavin' you believe me
 Is the first good deed I've done
 I'm only tryin' to save us from more heartache if I stay
 Cause baby if I, if I, if I were an angel
 If I, if I, if I were an angel
 I would have earned my wings today
 I didn't get a message
 From anyone on high
 And I dont get instructions
 On who to save and why
 No heavenly connections sent me down this way
 But baby if I, if I, if I were an angel
 If I, if I, if I were an angel
 I would have earned my wings today
 So look up in the sky tonight
 Thats where I may be
 High over the hillsides
 Far across the sea
 And if you hear the churchbells ring
 Everything's okay
 Cause baby if I, if I, if I were an angel
 I would have earned my wings today
