Angel On My Side Composer(s): Judy Collins Performer(s): Judy Collins
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 I didn't know if there were clouds or fire in the sky I didn't wanna 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 Thinkin' it would last All my hopes had vanished in the past
Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark Driftin' away with the tide God only knows how I made it back home I must have an angel on my side
In the mornin' 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 livin', what was there to find? I wanted just a little peace of mind
Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark Driftin' away with the tide God only knows how I made it back home I must have an angel on my side
Never had a flash of lightnin' comin' right at me One day I just know I woke up free The day was breakin', I was livin' I couldn't tell you why First I laughed and then I learned to cry Somethin' in my heart was sayin' you can reach the sky You just gotta live until you die
Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark Driftin' 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
