Lyrics

angel boy

I've been moving a mile at a minute
I've been playing it loud on the speaker
Poolside and cheap margaritas
Sangria, we drink by the liter
And my life was so wild with you in it
But you showed me the way, you're my teacher
Rose blunts we fill with sativa
Tongue kissing under the bleachers

And all those other guys
They don't mean well
No, all those other guys
They don't mean well

You're my angel boy
Heal me, fill the void
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you
Oh, you're my angel boy
Without you, I'm paranoid
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you

Treat you like a trophy, I drape you in nice things
Who cares if it's pricey?
Keep wearing me like a time piece, yeah
Loyalty I owe you, so show me you won't leave
Don't let me go, control freak
You get me so, so weak

So weak, and all those other guys
They aren't for me
No, all those other guys
They aren't for me

You're my angel boy
Heal me, fill the void
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you
Oh, you're my angel boy
Without you, I'm paranoid
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you

It's not enough, it's not enough
It's not enough, I'm longing for your trust
It's not enough, it's not enough (It's not enough)
It's not enough without my angel boy (my angel boy)

You're my angel boy
Heal me, fill the void (only get this way about you)
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you
Oh, you're my angel boy
Without you, I'm paranoid
You're my angel boy
Wish I could lie, but I wrote this song about you (let's go)

La-da-da-da
I wrote this song about you
Yeah, you should know
La-da-da-da
Yeah, I wrote this song about you
Oh
