(Michael McDonald & Chuck Sabatino)

For the most part within ourselves
We've got all we need
And I don't mean to make you feel
Dependent on me

But for everyone there comes a day
When you need some help along your way
When that moment comes

[Chorus:]
I'll be you angel
When the going gets rough
(when your best ain't enough)
I'll be by your side
(all else has been tried)
And I ain't giving up
(you can't give up)
Not on this love
(you still got my love)
I'll be your angel

There's no doubt in my mind
Why I'm alive
'cause I feel heaven-sent
When I look in your eyes

Well, this old world will drag you down
Tie your spirit to the ground
But if you call on me

[Chorus]
