Deceived By An Angel Lyrics - Singles - The Getaway People

Trust you to stand before me like an angel 

All dressed in sweet conceit, though I can't see it 

I'm running around in circles, but still I can't understand 

But with my third eye open, I can see 

That you treat me like a fool 

But one more lie that I can't take 

It's my tree that you shake 

So shake my soul to the ground and shake me down 

Trust you to want to want me, but do you need me? 

I pull petals from a flower, do you love me? 

I've seen you around my garden and you make the flowers bloom 

But when spring comes early, summers pass 

And autumn comes to soon 

But one more lie that I can't take 

It's my tree that you shake 

So shake my soul to the ground and shake me down 

'Cause I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, oh 

Oh baby, can't you understand 

That you're looking at a broken man 

If I could pick up the pieces of my broken heart 

I would do it all again 

But one more lie that I can't take 

It's my tree that you shake 

So shake my soul to the ground and shake me down 

'Cause I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, oh 

I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel 

I was deceived by an angel, by an angel, oh
