I met an angel on the street this morning Maybe it was late last night You see I haven't been to sleep There's music in my feet And I haven't stopped to think about it twice Oh yeah Well you wouldn't recognize her this angel Oh for she's not the celestial type She had no pair of wings I don't even think she sings And the words that she spoke were no heavenly hype Somehow she knew that I'd been thinking about you Somehow she knew the city held no light Somehow she knew that I just needed a reason To tell you the things that I feel in the night Oh let it show If you love them then let them know Oh let it show If you love them then let them know Well that was all that she said she had for me All that she'd been sent down to say So she straightened up her rags And she walked off with her bags Back into her city jail Away oh yeah So this is how I've come to you this morning To tell you of a secret in my heart I'll bring it to your feet I'll dance it in the street You know I love you I love you, I love you Oh Oh Somehow she knew that I'd been thinking about you Somehow she knew the city held no light Somehow she knew that I just needed a reason To tell you the things that I feel in the night Oh let it show If you love them then let them know Oh let it show If you love them then let them know Oh let it show I met an angel yeah So let it show
