I couldn't help but overhear your conversation   When you told her that you owned her heart and soul   You say you've got her wrapped around your finger   But there's somethin' about angels you should know      She'll walk away one step at a time   It'll take you by surprise   You'll think it happened overnight   It'll be too late when you realize angels don't fly   They just walk away one step at a time      Don't think I'm tryin' to mind your business   It's a full time job just tryin' to mind mine   But I once had an angel just like her   And if I'd treated her right, she'd still be by my side      She'll walk away one step at a time   It'll take you by surprise   You'll think it happened over night   It'll be too late when you realize angels don't fly   They just walk away one step at a time   It'll be too late when you realize angels don't fly   They just walk away one step at a time
