Lyrics
Angel, beauty lay next to me
I thought I made you up again
Somewhere inside my head
You're so beautiful
Drunken whispers in my ear
Your promises were so unclear
Live for the moment, if only for this moment
These simple pleasures pass me by
Now I lay, in bed with you, perfect stranger
Could you be the one that I've been hoping for
The undertow that pulls me away
I thought I made you up again
Inhibitions came unbound
We slipped away without a sound
I could tell by the way you touched me you're so rich in
Mystery my dear
Now I lay, in bed with you, perfect stranger
Could you be the one that I've been hoping for
The undertow that pulls me away
I thought I'd never find you here
But now I've found the strength to carry on
Carry on
In bed with you, perfect stranger
Could you be the one that I've been hoping for
The undertow that pulls me away
