Lyrics John Farnham

John Farnham

We're No Angels

Ever alone and isolated

And deep within the soul

And ever optimistic

That one day we'll reach the goal

An inner voice deeps pushing

Saying we must do our best

while all the time we know

That we'll be settling for less

But we're not angels

We're not angles

Well things are moving faster

That we'll ever comprehend

Now to some it's a comfort

To have faith that life don't end

Always hoping for a second chance

To fulfill our desires

We got looking for a saviour

When we fall into the fire

But we're no angels

We're no angels

I never said I was an angel

We're no angels

So some on and spread your arms

Like wings on wind

Trying to get up higher

To be a little like an angel

To be like Gabriel

There's a demon dwelling down below

Darker than us all

Though once he was a pretty angel

Who never thought he would fall

So we follow dreams

We seek what's real

Always knowing that we

Will never be

Angels

We're no angels

We're no angels

I never claimed to be

An angel

We're not angels
