(Deana Carter/Michael Smotherman/Dan Ehmig)

She's got wings that shine so bright
They keep her up most every night
Burning the candle at both ends
Livin' a lie up with all her friends
Heaven only knows what's up her sleeve:
She flies to fast, an' she dips too deep

She's an angel too high to come down
She's an angel on the wrong side a-town
The lights go dim on her long golden hair
She's an angel, an angel without a prayer

She wears a smile just like a clown
She never seems to touch the ground
The stars in her eyes keep her amused
She keeps getting further from the truth
Every day goes by just the same,
Same old lies with a different name

She's an angel too high to come down
She's an angel on the wrong side a-town
The lights go dim on her long golden hair
She is an angel, an angel without a prayer

Devil's around every corner
Waitin' for her to fall

She's Daddy's little girl
She's lookin' down at the rest of the world
It gets lonely way up there
She believes, but she just don't care
Only heaven knows what's up her sleeve,
She flies to fast, an' she dips too deep

She's an angel too high to come down
She's an angel on the wrong side a-town
The lights go dim on her long golden hair
She's an angel, an angel without a prayer

She's an angel too high to come down
She's an angel on the wrong side a-town
The lights go dim on her long golden hair
She's an angel, an angel without a prayer

She's an angel without a prayer
