[Verse 1]
When I lay down and I fall asleep
Hope I might see you in my dreams
But it's been a few months
Since I seen you in one of these

Keep searching and searching

But tonight
I swear I never felt so close
Never felt so close
'Cause tonight
I think I might've finally found what I needed most
[Chorus]
'Cause I met an angel, an angel
Who told me she knew someone
Who looked just like me
So I asked her to tell her something for me

I'm in agony
I'm in agony
[Chorus]
'Til I met an angel, an angel
Who told me she knew someone
Who looked just like me
So I asked her to tell her something for me
