when i'm down on my luck
and i'm searching for my soul
when i'm feelin too much
and i start to lose control
when i'm down so low
that even enemies don't wanna know
you still care for me
say a prayer for me
and i know

ohh i like you hanging around
cause you lift me up when i'm upside down
ohh you are my favorite sound
cause you're always down for lifting me up

like an angel when i hit the ground
throw your arms all around me when i'm feelin down
lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
when your arms are around me
i don't wanna let you go
oh no no

when i'm lost along the way
and i can't face another day
and if i stumble on the road
if i can't carry the load
if i lose my faith and kindness and generosity
would you hold my hand
say you understand my pain

ohh i like you hanging around
cause you lift me up when i'm upside down
ohh you are my favorite sound
cause you're always down for lifiting me up

like an angel when i hit the ground
feel your arms all around me when i'm feelin down
lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
when your arms are around me
i don't wanna let you go

it's been a long hard road
and it's only just begun my friend this i know
you helped me carry the load
cause you're always down for lifting me up

like an angel when i hit the ground
throw your arms all around me when i'm feelin down
lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
well you're always around
you're my favorite sound

lift me up
like an angel when i hit the ground
throw your arms all around me when i'm feelin down
lift me up like an angel when i hit my low
when your arms are around me
i don't wanna let you go
i don't wanna let you go
cause you lift me up now
