From the book:
Wordsongs - Too Blue

Tempted By An Angel

Tempted by an angel
Speaking words of love
Tempted by an angel
A vision from up above                                

She was the angel of your dreams
She was speaking the words of love
Tempted by an angel
Is all you were guilty of

You did the best you could
Worked hard to make things right
But no matter how hard you try
Some things just don’t work out in this life

You paved the road to the garden of Eden
You even made her your wife
But in the end she left you
With nothing but guilt for the strife

Tempted by an angel
Speaking words of love
Tempted by an angel
A vision from up above

She was the angel of your dreams
She was speaking the words of love
Tempted by an angel
Is all you were guilty of

You just can’t seem to find someone
Willing to commit like you do
Yet you’ve still got your children
. . . and your dreams
To carry you through

But you still see that sparkle that shines in her eyes
You still remember it all
No matter how you try to ignore it . . . sometimes
You still hear the angel’s call

Tempted by an angel
Speaking words of love
Tempted by an angel
A vision from up above

She was the angel of your dreams
She was speaking the words of love
Tempted by an angel
Is all you were guilty of
