Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why am I standing on a cloud
Every time you're around?
And the sadness disappears
Every time you are near
[Verse 2]
You must be an angel
I can see it in your eyes
Full of wonder and surprise
And just now I realize
[Verse 3]
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
In disguise
I can see it in your eyes
[Verse 4]
Walking down a crowded avenue
Other faces seem like nothing next to you
And I can't hear the traffic rushing by
Just the pounding of my heart
And that's why
[Verse 5]
You must be an angel
I can see it in your eyes
Full of wonder and surprise
And just now I realize
[Verse 6]
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
In disguise
I can see it in your eyes
[Verse 7]
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
In disguise
I can see it in your eyes
[Verse 8]
You're an angel
You're an angel, baby
You're an angel
You must be an angel
[Verse 9]
Well, I believe that dreams come true
'Cause you came when I wished for you
This can't just be coincidence
They only way that this makes sense is that
[Verse 10]
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
In disguise
I can see it in your eyes
[Verse 11]
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
Ooh, you're an angel
In disguise
I can see it in your eyes
[Verse 12]
You're an angel
You're an angel, baby
You're an angel
You must be an angel, baby
[Verse 13]
Clouds just disappear
