ARETHA FRANKLIN
- Angel Lyrics / with translationsSpoken:
I got a call the other day
It was my sister, Carolyn, sayin
Aretha, come by when you can
I've got somethin I wanna say.
And when I got there she said
You know, rather than go through a long drawn out thing,
I think the melody on the box, will help me explain
Gotta find me an angel, to fly away with me
Gotta find me an angel, who will set me free
My heart is without a home, I don't want to be alone
I gotta find me an angel in my life, in my life
Too long have I loved, so unattached within
So much that I know that I need somebody so
So I'll just go on hoping that I'll find me someone
Gotta find me an angel in my life
In my life
Instrumental
I know there must be someone, somewhere for me
For I lived too long without the love of someone
There's no misery ooooooh oooh like the misery
I feel in me, gotta find me an angel in my life
(He'll be there now don't you worry)
In my life (keep lookin and just keep cookin)
In my life (he'll be there, now don?t you worry)
In my life
I got a call the other day
It was my sister, Carolyn, sayin
Aretha, come by when you can
I've got somethin I wanna say.
And when I got there she said
You know, rather than go through a long drawn out thing,
I think the melody on the box, will help me explain
Gotta find me an angel, to fly away with me
Gotta find me an angel, who will set me free
My heart is without a home, I don't want to be alone
I gotta find me an angel in my life, in my life
Too long have I loved, so unattached within
So I'll just go on hoping that I'll find me someone
Gotta find me an angel in my life
In my life
Instrumental
I know there must be someone, somewhere for me
For I lived too long without the love of someone
There's no misery ooooooh oooh like the misery
I feel in me, gotta find me an angel in my life
(He'll be there now don't you worry)
In my life (keep lookin and just keep cookin)
In my life (he'll be there, now don?t you worry)
In my life
