"1000 Angels" Lyrics

I took another whiskey and I felt sick
Just like the other times when this was it
I think you found a place in my head
The way it felt before you left

It would have been easier if you said
Sorry but I found someone else
Instead I dream about what could have been
And wake up feeling what's never been
But you know in my head
You still look like 1000 angels
Yeah, in my head
You still look like 1000 angels

I told a friend that I made amends
But I couldn't be there then
I thought I knew you, but in the end
I guess I knew myself all too well

You said that I never tried
But I never knew what to do
In words I might have justified
I do hope you see truth

But you know in my head
You still look like 1000 angels
Yeah, in my head
You still look like 1000 angels

How I could have been the one
For you I would be the one

I was naive, young and free
To me, your name was Freedom
So I never took it seriously
When you turned to me
And told me that I was the one
Now I'm dying to be the one

You know, in my head
You still look like 1000 angels
Yeah in my head
You still look like 1000 angels

When there's nothing left I learn to love the past
All the comfort I had is gone
For a little bit, until it comes back
And takes me to the river near your home
where a whisper meant a million things
Softly in my ear
While the breeze kept me from falling apart
Under the trees and the sunlight
Insecure in my heart
But now forever in yours
Forever in mine

Because in my head
You still look like 1000 angels
Yeah in my head
You still look like 1000 angels

For you i'd be the one
How I could have been the one.
