Her wings are broken, and she never prays
And that old halo on her head has seen better days
She knows he's watching, she feels him there
And it breaks her heart to think the weight was too much bare

(chorus)
She's an angel that's lost her way
She's an angel from another day
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But i think she's an angel that's lost her way

She's got lines running up her arms like an l.a. freeway
I've dropped her off at rehab 7 times but she just won't stay
She never climbed a mountain but she's seen her share of stone
She got locked up in johnson county for selling pills and blow

(chorus)
She's an angel that's lost her way
She's an angel from another day
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But i think she's an angel that's lost her way

She's got 3 kids that don't know her name
She's sold her body a couple of times to ease the pain
She wakes up screaming, her face full of tears
She's only 29 but she's aged beyond her years

(chorus)
She's an angel that's lost her way
She's an angel from another day
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But i think she's an angel that's lost her way
