The sunbeam hit the Jim Beam And ricocheted off a bottle of Coke Cut through the still smoulderin' Second-hand night-before smoke The whisky's half-empty Half in me, my enemy an' my friend Well, last night drowned my sorrows But today is tomorrow again
When you fall for an angel like her You're walkin' on clouds When you're in love, you're so up You forget to look down The higher an' higher she took me The further I fell An' it's angels like her That send guys like me straight to hell
There's a ring in her forehead On the picture where the bottle sat last night It might look like a halo But I know it's a trick of the light Oooh, that smile on her face Has a way to fool any old fool Yeah, she came straight from Heaven But I know the devil did too
When you fall for an angel like her You're walkin' on clouds Yeah, when you're in love, you're so up You forget to look down An' the higher an' higher she took me The further I fell An' it's angels like her That send guys like me straight to hell
Yeah, the higher an' higher she took me The further I fell An' it's angels like her That send guys like me straight to hell
