Send Down An Angel Lyrics

Allison Moorer

(Allison Moorer/Doyle Primm)

It's nearly 3 a.m.
And still no sight of him
When it comes to love
I'm in the dark

Lord, I don't understand
Why I stand by my man
All he's ever done
Is break my heart

Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through

I'm not the praying kind
But it can't hurt to try
I can't find the answer
By myself
I need help

Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through

Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through
