She wished on a star
And thought it came true
A back seat I will
An early I do
18 and married she carried his son
He'd disappear
Every Friday at 5
A love barely started
It was barely alive
She felt him running she was coming undone
The one night he came home the next day
And all it took was one look in his eyes
Angels cry when love is forsaken
Angels try to keep it alive
When hard words are spoken
Soft hearts are broken
And there's nothing left but goodbye
Oh the devil dances away, but angels cry
Scared and alone
Somehow she got through
Working till midnight
Eating for two
Nine months of waiting and hating her life
But when she held that newborn against her
She prayed that he'd never hear
Angels cry when love is forsaken
Angels try to keep it alive
When hard words are spoken
Soft hearts are broken
And there's nothing left but goodbye
Oh the devil dances away, but angels cry
Oh Nothing in this world is certain
So hold on to all the love you can
Angels cry when love is forsaken
Angels try to keep it alive
When hard words are spoken
Soft hearts are broken
And there's nothing left but goodbye
Oh the devil dances away
Oh the devil dances away, but angels cry
Angels cry
