Angel Needs a Ride
Said Angel, do you want a ride?
Said Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
and I need somebody by my side.
It was a long road
that stretched from Vegas to nowhere,
but it'd been an even longer time
since he found some peace of mind.
And he lived off of bubble gum and cigarettes
and got his nourishment from all-night stores.
Thought he'd just keep on driving
'till he outdrove his sorrow,
And he said Angel, oh, do you want a ride?
Said Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
and I need somebody by my side.
Her feet were worn and tired,
but as determined as her soul.
She left with no regrets,
but also no possessions did she own,
and her heart was as fragile
as her pale, loving arms.
She's praying to God to take away her lonely
when he pulled over on the side of the road,
And he said Angel, oh, do you want a ride?
Said Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely
and I need somebody by my side.
The highway goes on forever,
I've seen a thousand men like him before,
and I've seen a thousand Angels that got into the car.
They're just a couple of lost souls
looking to rekindle some forgotten dream.
I hope they find what they're looking for
in the silence of the road.
And they say Angel, oh, do you want a ride?
Said Angel, I'm tired and I'm lonely,
I'm tired and I'm lonely,
I'm tired and I'm lonely,
and I need to have somebody by my Angel.
