Angel Needs A Ride Lyrics by Jewel

Angel Needs A Ride

Said, "angel, do you want a ride? "
Said, "angel, Im tired and Im lonely
And I need somebody by my side"

Its a long road that stretched from vegas to nowhere
But itd been an even longer time
Since he found some piece of mind
And he lived off of bubblegum and cigarettes
And got his nourishment from all-night stores
Thought hed just keep driving
Til he outdrove his sorrow

He said, "angel, oh do you want a ride? "
Said "angel, Im tired and Im lonely
And I need somebody by my side"

Her feet were warm and tired
But as determined as a soul
She left with no regrets
But also no posessions did she own
Her heart was as fragile as her thin, loving arms
Shes praying to God to take away her lonely
When he pulled on aside of the road

And he said, "angel, oh do you want a ride? "
Said, "angel, Im tired and Im lonely
And I need somebody by my side"

The highway goes on forever
Ive seen a thousand men like him before
And Ive seen a thousand angels that
Got into the car
Theyre just a couple of lost souls
Looking to rekindle some sort of forgotten dream
I hope they find what theyre looking for
In the solace of the road

They said, "angel, do you want a ride? "
Said, "angel, Im tired and Im lonely
Im tired and Im lonely
Im tired and Im lonely
Im tired and Im lonely
And I need to have somebody
By my angel"
