When Angels Fly Away

[Verse 1]

I'll make a soldier's decision to fly away

Load my gun, paint my face, call me misery

I can see the sky light up and the ground explode

Got my sights locked in, I can see you breathe

Then I watched you fall and somebody scream

It's the saddest thing when angels fly away

[Chorus]

I can't be home tonight

I'll make it back, it's alright

No one could ever love me half as good as you

[Verse 2]

Got a badge for my scars just the other day

Wore it proud for the sake of my sanity

I could see the flames burn bright from the winding road

Like a haunting page from our history

Watched a young girl cry and her mother scream

It's the saddest thing when angels fly away

[Chorus]

I can't be home tonight

I'll make it back, it's alright

No one could ever love me half as good as you

You can't be strong tonight

Love makes you sad, it's alright

No one could ever worry half as good as you

Half as good as you

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

I can't be home tonight

I'll make it back, it's alright

No one could ever love me half as good as you

You can't be strong tonight

Love makes you sad, it's alright

No one could ever worry half as good as you
