Chris Thile - You're an Angel, and I'm Gonna Cry Lyrics

What do you see that's so beautiful
That it always reflects in your eyes
The world casts a shadow
Across your sweet face
You're an angel and I'm gonna cry

When I used to see you I'd smile
The pretty girl upon the sun
Then I'd thank God for mine
Now she's leavin
And I need an angel to keep me from crying

You're an angel and I'm gonna cry
Cause I can't have you
And I'm not gonna try

I'm wasting this dream with my troubles
Let me rest in your arms for awhile
Say you love me
Cause when I wake up dear
You'll just be an angel and I'm gonna cry

Say you love me
Cause when I wake up dear
You'll just be an angel and I'm gonna cry
