I Know There Must Be Angels

My daddy drank whiskey and smoked cigarettes
and he lived like the devil back when I was a kid
But one night he came undone with no place left to run
another battle for his soul - but this time heaven won

Chorus:
And I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place
sent down to protect him until he could be saved
Only Heaven knows how many times he needed grace
Oh I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place

Well I finally got the nerve to go see her car
and the shattered glass and mangled steel broke my heart
An old man shook his head asked did anybody live
I said my daughter's living proof that miracles exist

Chorus:
And I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place
sent down to protect us without leaving any trace
Only Heaven knows how many times he needed grace
Oh I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place

Bridge:
Well it's the wanders and the mystery's
that only Heaven can explain
It would have to be the hand of God that could do those sort of things

Chorus:
And I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place
sent down to protect him until he could be saved
Only Heaven knows how many times he needed grace
Oh I know there must be Angels with some feathers out of place
