Lyrics

[Verse 1]

One (I gotta find)

Two (An angel)

Come on

You know how we do

For the sound system

This is for the sound system

I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta

[Verse 2]

Gotta find me an angel

To fly away with me

Gotta find me an angel

Who will set me free

My heart is without a home

I don't wnat to be alone

Gotta find me an angel

In my life

[Verse 3]

In my life

Too long have I loved

So unattached within

So much that I know

That I need somebody so

Still, I just go on

Hoping that I find me someone

Gotta find me an angel

[Verse 4]

In my life

In my life

[Verse 5]

Yo, yo

I'm 'bout to go through the bully

See if I find myself a project angel

By the bus stop, suckin' on a lollipop

It never stop

[Verse 6]

Come on

Yo, this is for the sound system

This is for the sound system

Simply Red's on your sound system

This is for the sound system

(Yo, I just spotted her)

Ha (Uh)

One time, ah

[Verse 7]

I know there must be

Someone, someone for me

I've lived too long

Without the love of someone

There's no misery

Yeah, like the misery I feel in me

Gotta find me an angel

[Verse 8]

In my life

In my life

[Verse 9]

Got to find me

(She'll be there)

(And don't you worry)

Got to find me

(Keep lookin')

(And just keep cookin')

An angel

(She'll be there)

(And don't you worry)

I got to find me

(Keep lookin')

(And just keep cookin')

Some angel, yeah, yeah

[Verse 10]

(She'll be there)

(And don't you worry)

Like an angel, yeah, well

(Keep lookin')

(And just keep cookin')

[Verse 11]

Got to find me

(She'll be there)

(And don't you worry)

I've got to find me

(Keep lookin')

(And just keep cookin')

[Verse 12]
