I don't talk to God like you always tell me I should
I don't live my life every day like you prayed that I would, uh
Yeah, I'm a mess of a man with lessons to learn
You're the last thing on earth I deserve
You shoulda slammed the door, changed the lock and said, adios
To my selfish heart, tore it apart and left me alone
Don't know why you were patient and wasted good savin' on me
Maybe angels don't always have wings
I ain't that type of guy that miracles wake up next to
For too long, I didn't know what I had, but dang, these days I do
If I make it to Heaven, it'll be by a hair
But one look at you and I'm there
You shoulda slammed the door, changed the lock and said, adios
To my selfish heart, tore it apart and left me alone
Don't know why you were patient and wasted good savin' on me
Maybe angels don't always have
Wings and halos
But hey, what do I know?
'Cause I dang near drug one through hell
But you shoulda slammed the door, changed the lock and said, adios
To my selfish heart, tore it apart and left me alone
Don't know why you were patient and wasted good savin' on me
Whoa, now I believe that maybe angels don't always have wings
Mm
They don't always have wings
