His Angel Back

I was with her there
In a hospital chair
The days she got the news
When we met eyes she started to cry
So hard she couldn’t breathe
I said I love you don’t worry
I’m in it 'til the end
If I could I’d take your cancer
But I’m waiting on an answer from god
This life seems hopeless
I’m hopeful but I guess
He wants his angel back
She buries her head in my shoulder
I try to consult her
I try just to hold
But what do you say when it’s gonna be OK is a lie, a lie
I said I love you don’t worry I’m in it 'til the end
If I could I’d take your cancer
But I’m waiting on an answer from god
This life seems hopeless
I’m hopeful but I guess
He wants his angel back
He wants his angel back
(He wants his angel back) If I could I’d take your cancer
But I’m waiting on an answer from god
It seems apparently
She must mean more to you than me
Don’t take my beautiful girl
If I could I’d take your cancer
But I’m waiting on an answer from god
This life seems hopeless
I’m hopeful but I guess
He wants his angel back
