Angie
Sammy Kershaw · Covers The Hits [2000]
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
With no lovin' in our soul and no money in our coats
Well, you can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried.
Angie, you're beautiful
But ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those night we cried
All the dreams were held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
We;;, let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie, Where will it lead us from here?
--- Instrumental ---
Oh, but Angie don't you weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie Ain't it time we said goodbye?
--- Instrumental ---
With no lovin' in our soul and no money in our coats
Well, you can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
Well, there ain't a woman that comes close to you
Well come on baby, dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie, you can't say we never cried...
