Angel On My Side
Judy Collins
Judy Collins - Angel On My Side [Intro] [Verse 1] There was a time when the clocks all stopped When the world just went away I didn’t know if it was night or day [Verse 2] I didn’t know if there were clouds or fire in the sky Didn’t want to live if I could die Somewhere down the line I found myself up on that road Where the devil led me I would go I had sold my soul for pleasure thinking it would last All my hopes had vanished in the past [Chorus] Lost I was lost like a child in the dark Drifting away with the tide God only knows how I made it back home I must have an angel on my side [Verse 3] In the morning I’d wake up and shake my weary head Wonder where I’d been and what I’d said Was I on the River Styx for all eternity? Would I drown forever in the sea? Why did anyone keep living what was there to find? I wanted just a little peace of mind [Chorus] Lost I was lost like a child in the dark Drifting away with the tide God only knows how I made it back home I must have an angel on my side [Verse 4] Never had a flash of lightning comin’ right at me One day I just know I woke up free The day was breaking I was living I couldn’t tell you why First I laughed and then I learned to cry Something in my heart was saying you can reach the sky You just gotta live until you die [Chorus] Lost I was lost like a child in the dark Drifting away with the tide God only knows how I made it back home I must have an angel on my side I must have an angel I must have an angel I must have an angel on my side___
