Angel

Dave Matthews Band · Live at Folsom Field - Boulder, Colorado [2002]

I call you up, you pick up

You call my bluff, on the cards of love

You hold to close your hands to your chest

I can't read your eyes, but I confess

It's lonely far from you

Even when you're right by me

It's only why I wait for you to take my hand



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I come after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel

You



I play my cards best I can

But I lose my luck when you're not here

My darling heart, won't you please give in

I may be strong but I want you back again

When you're not here love, it's hard to pretend

It's all alright again

When you're not here love it's hard to pretend

It's all alright...still



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I run after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel

You



Watch the deck, count your cards

Makes no sense, that I'm always losing

When you're gone



Why do I beg like a child for your candy?

Why do I run after you like I do I love you

Whatever you are I swear

You'll be my angel

You



When you're gone...
