Angie, Angie

When will those clouds all disappear?

Angie, Angie

Where will it lead us from here?

With no lovin' in our soul and no money in our coats

You can't say we're satisfied

But Angie, Angie

You can't say we never tried



Angie, you're beautiful

But I hate that sadness in your eyes

Angie, I still love you baby

Remember all those nights we cried

All the dreams were held so close

Seemed to all go up in smoke

Let me whisper in your ear

Angie, Angie

Where will it lead us from here? Yeah



All the dreams we held so close

Seemed to all go up in smoke

Hate that sadness in your eyes

But Angie, I still love you baby

Everywhere I look I see your eyes

There ain't a woman that comes close to you

Come on baby dry your eyes

But Angie, Angie

Ain't it good to be alive

Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried
