Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be It's been six years now Since my ring slipped on your finger And those years have made A better man out of me. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. There've been times when I've treated you so badly I've done things I know You'll never understand. But you take me back Turn your eyes towards the window Where you hide the tears You don't want me to see. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. Once an angel Always an angel You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be. You're as close to heaven As I'll ever be.
