I said "Mama, hes crazy and he scares me
But I want him by my side
Though hes wild and hes bad
And sometimes just plain mad
I need him to keep me satisfied"I said "Papa, dont cry 'cause its alright
And I see you in some of his ways
Though he might not give me the life that you wanted
Ill love him the rest of my days"Misguided angel hangin over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you til Im deadI said "Brother, you speak to me of passion"
And you said "Never to settle for nothing less
Well, its in the way he walks, its in the way he talks
His smile, his anger and his kisses"I said "Sister, dont you understand?
Hes all I ever wanted in a man
Im tired of sittin around the TV every night
Hoping Im finding a Mr. Right"Misguided angel hangin over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you til Im deadHe says "Baby, dont listen to what they say
There comes a time when you have to break away"
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our life
Its time to let them go and become my wife"Misguided angel hangin over me
Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory
Soul like a Lucifer, black and cold like a piece of lead
Misguided angel, love you til Im dead
