Letra Angel on my side Judy Collins

Angel on my side

There was a time when the clocks all stopped

When the world just went away,

I didn't know if it was night or day.

I didn't know if there were clouds or fire in the sky,

I didn't wanna live if I could die.

Somewhere down the line I found myself up on that road,

Where the devil led me, I would go.

I had sold my soul for pleasure,

Thinkin' it would last,

All my hopes had vanished in the past.

Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark,

Driftin' away with the tide.

God only knows how I made it back home.

I must have an angel on my side.

In the mornin' I'd wake up and shake my weary head,

Wonder where I'd been and what I'd said.

Was I on the River Styx for all eternity?

Would I drown forever in the sea?

Why did anyone keep livin', what was there to find?

I wanted just a little peace of mind.

Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark,

Driftin' away with the tide.

God only knows how I made it back home.

I must have an angel on my side.

Never had a flash of lightnin' comin' right at me,

One day I just know I woke up free.

The day was breakin', I was livin',

I couldn't tell you why,

First I laughed and then I learned to cry.

Somethin' in my heart was sayin' you can reach the sky,

You just gotta live until you die.

Lost, I was lost like a child in the dark,

Driftin' away with the tide.

God only knows how I made it back home.

I must have an angel on my side.

I must have an angel,

I must have an angel,

I must have an angel on my side.
