You say youre down on your luck
hey baby, its a long, long way up
hold back now, hold back your fears
you say youre really down and out
and you feel like theres no way out now
let go now let go of your tears some more
How many times have you asked yourself
is this the hand of fate that Ive been dealt?
youre so disillusioned this cant be real
and you cant stand now the way you feel
I dont care about what they say
I wont live or die that way
tired of figuring out things on my own
angels wings wont you carry me home
And when youre down on your luck
hey baby, its a long, long way up
hold back now, hold back your fears
and when youre really down and out
and you feel like theres no way out now
let go now let go of your tears some more
I triumphed in the face of adversity
and I became the man I never thought Id be
and now my biggest challenge, a thing called love
I guess Im not as tough as I thought I was
I dont care about what they say
Im gonna marry you some day
go ahead and wake up, its a brand new day
Angels wings gonna carry you away
Angels wings are going to carry me away
Angels wings are going to carry us away
