Lyrics

I keep running, but I'm running out of time
I keep wishing I could make it out alive
I keep dreaming, I keep dreaming
I keep hoping, I can make it through the night.

And when I saw your blue eyes I thought you were an angel.
When I saw your blue eyes piercing through my soul
I thought you were an angel
Thought you were an angel
Thought you were an angel
Thought you were an angel

When God made you he broke the mold
With all your kindness to have and to hold
And your the best friend that I'll ever know
And I'm not worried, I'm not scared anymore

And when I saw your blue eyes I thought you were an angel
When I saw your blue eyes piercing through my soul
I thought you were an angel
I thought you were an angel
Thought you were an angel
I thought you were an angel
Thought you were an angel
I thought you were an angel
