lyrics

Bet a million dollars to the devil
On what I could never win
But got no money in my pocket
Wonder where did it all begin

Became a thirsty rambler
Who dries the water around him
But I'm drinking of my dreams
It was the fairest treat for my sins

Now I raise my eyes and see
Angel standing on her feet
She shouldn't know about you and me
Cause that girl cries when roses bleed

You held me up, beat me up, threw me away
I'm staying with an angel
But the devil ain't want me there
You held me up, beat me up, threw me away
I'm staying with an angel
But you'll take me down again

Begging me to recall
I see her laying between my sheets
The memories of the past
And the places where we'd meet

Angel takes me to high places
But your rope got me tied
With the promise of leading me
To the highest mountains with the clearest skies

Cause that bus took me
Where you didn't want me to go
I don't want you to know
That your stare breaks down my soul

You held me up, beat me up, threw me away
I'm staying with an angel
But the devil ain't want me there
You held me up, beat me up, threw me away
I'm staying with an angel
But you'll take me down again
