God Gave Me An Angel lyrics - Chris Rea

I was never born with the face of a movie star
I was never blessed with an easy load along the way
I have taken the wrong turning
So many times I can't remember
But one thing I have for sure
I can always smile and say

God gave me an angel with a smiling face
God gave me an angel this I know
My churches are all empty and I'm guilty every day
But god gave me an angel anyway

Talk of being good and what became of me
Do I hide my head in shame and turn away
I have taken the wrong turning
So many times I can't remember
But one thing I have for sure
I can always smile and say

But God gave me an angel with a smiling face
God gave me an angel this I know
My churches are all empty and I'm guilty every day
But god gave me an angel anyway
