You say you're down on your luck hey baby, its a long, long way up hold back now, hold back your fears you say you're really down and out and you feel like there's no way out now let go now let go of your tears some more
How many times have you asked yourself is this the hand of fate that I've been dealt? you're so disillusioned this can't be real and you can't stand now the way you feel
I don't care about what they say I won't live or die that way tired of figuring out things on my own angel's wings wont you carry me home
[Chorus:] And when you're down on your luck hey baby, its a long, long way up hold back now, hold back your fears and when you're really down and out and you feel like there's no way out now let go now let go of your tears some more
[Repeat Chorus]
I triumphed in the face of adversity and I became the man I never thought I'd be and now my biggest challenge, a thing called love I guess I'm not as tough as I thought I was
I don't care about what they say I'm gonna marry you some day go ahead and wake up, its a brand new day Angel's wings gonna carry you away Angel's wings are going to carry me away Angel's wings are going to carry us away
