Angel On My Shoulder

Angel On My Shoulder - Merrilee Rush

Lyrics by：Chip Taylor

Composed by：Chip Taylor

Produced by：Tommy Cogbill

How long can I remain–untouched

Held by the shadow–of your name

The silent eyes–seem to know so much

When I'm not with you–try and understand

It's hard to take the best of me

And keep it from the rest of me

There's no angel on my shoulder

When I feel like doing wrong

There's no angel on my shoulder

To keep me hanging on

I hear the footsteps–of a day gone by

And sometimes I almost–turn around

To seek relief–on a rainbow ride

My guardian angel–is nowhere to be found

How can I do what's right for me

With no one there to fight for me

There's no angel on my shoulder

When I feel like doing wrong

There's no angel on my shoulder

To keep me hanging on

To show me the weak from the strong

I wish you could touch me now

I wish you could hold me now

Oh how I need you

How I need you

There's no angel on my shoulder

When I feel like doing wrong

And there's no angel on my shoulder

To keep me hanging on
