Description: Bandleader's note: "I wrote this song with exactly two chords. Then, when it came time for Danny to record his parts for the song, he played completely different chords. I liked his arrangement more than my own so I recorded new guitar parts to match his, hence the co-write."

lyrics

saw you driving as I walked home
I hoped it wasn't really you
my heart felt like a stone
dragging the rest of me down so you wouldn't see through

you'll always be my angel
you'll always be the same
you'll always be my angel
inside this tortured brain
where we never changed

messing around I stop and hope you'll fade away
lost between the threads of time
and it gets to be a similar obsession
underneath the dotted line

why'd you have to be my angel?
you never asked me to
why'd you have to be my angel?
I never listened to
why you couldn't be my

notebooks and album covers scattered
archived poorly over years
if I could feel a bit more strongly about it
there'd probably be faded tears

you'll always be my angel
in only meaningless ways
you know you're not my angel
and if that's the way it stays
we'll all be seeing better days
