This time, sweeter.

angel in disguise
corrinne may

I woke up this morning feeling kind of blue
and I stumbled out of bed
and dragged my feet across the room

Right outside my front door was a rose
and a note that said 'Somebody Loves You'

But out on the street it starts to pour and before I get soaking wet,
A total stranger runs to give me the jacket off his back
I turn around to thank him
But he waves me with a smile
I can hardly believe my eyes
He puts on a halo and starts to fly

Take a look at the ordinary
Don't need to look at Paradise
You could be next to an angel in disguise

I met a good friend for lunch and we had a delicious meal
But I forgot to bring my wallet I felt like an imbecile
But she was sweet, she gave me a treat and
Bought me a chicken sandwich
To take home for tea

But out on the street with nothing to eat
A man and his shopping cart go
Travelling to places,
Collecting social graces
I give him my sandwich
and we chatter for a while
I see a rainbow wash over his eyes
He gives me his halo and I start to fly

Take a look at the ordinary
Don't need to look for Paradise
You could be next to an angel in disguise
Don't try to hide away from me
I know you're by my side

I woke up this morning
Feeling kind of new.

we don't have to keep on thinking that the world and all the people in it is horrible, disgusting and immoral. we just want to go to heaven. but hey, why not make this world more beautiful for everyone?
be the next angel.
