I felt so blue - the sky was so grey

It was pouring down - I went walking anyway

A ragged old man came right up to me

He said: "I'm half blind - but there's things I see

And things I believe" - He said:



"Even angels cry

If you don't believe my words

Just look up at the sky

Do you really think it's rain?

It's nothing more than heaven's pain

Even angels cry

Even angels cry"



I said: "Man, what makes you so smart?"

He said: "Have you ever heard of a broken heart?

Since she left me, I've been sad as you

But she let's me know she misses me too

I know that it's true



Even angels cry

If you don't believe my words

Just look up at the sky

Do you really think it's rain?

It's nothing more than heaven's pain

Even angels cry

Even angels cry



I really do believe that love's forever

When it takes a hold of you, it won't let you go

And it can pull a broken heart together

And just in case you're troubled, I want you to know



Even angels cry

If you don't believe my words

Just look up at the sky

Do you really think it's rain?

It's nothing more than heaven's pain

Even angels cry

Even angels cry

Even angels cry

Even angels cry

Even angels cry

Even angels cry

Even angels cry"
