I guess there used to be a time when I knew
The things that did and didn't really matter
But that was an awfully long time ago
Things they couldn't go on without a change
I knew the pain couldn't last forever
There had to be a better way to go

But then angels saved me
And sheltered me from harm
And angels gave me
A way to find some strength and peace of mind
To find my way back home

I guess I thought I knew it all a little better
Than I really did & guess I still do
Things you take for granted sometimes have a way of
Turning round and coming right back after you
Things they couldn't go on without a change
I knew the pain couldn't last forever
There had to be a better way to go

But then angels saved me
And sheltered me from harm
And angels gave me
A way to find some strength and peace of mind
To find my way back home
