Angel in My View

How'm I gonna write this love-letter to you when all I have are these hands How'm I gonna write this love-letter to you when I can't even ask you to dance Just don't tell me I've gotta give up on love Don't tell me that I've gotta give up on love Don't tell me that I've gotta give up on love when you know that it's true I'm depending on you to be the angel in my view How'm I gonna read this love-poem aloud when all I have are these words How'm I gonna read this love-poem aloud when I'm destined to stutter it's my curse Just don't tell me I've gotta give up on love Don't tell me that I've gotta give up on love Don't tell me that I've gotta give up on love when you know that it's true I'm depending on you to be the angel in my view Did you know that I stay up late thinkin' about the love we could be making As I drink you in with proverbial arms And after everything I concede you're my only aching And I would gladly let you slay me with your charms C'mon and slay me with your charms Just don't tell me I've gotta give up on love Did you know that I stay up late thinkin' about the love we could be making As I drink you in with proverbial eyes And after everything I concede you're my only aching And I would gladly let you paint me with white lies C'mon and paint me with white lies Just don't tell me I've gotta give up on love Don't you tell me I've gotta give up on love Don't you tell me that I've gotta give up on love Don't tell me that I've gotta give up on sweet, sweet love when you know that it's true I'm depending on you to be the angel in my view
