Angel Pumping Gas Lyrics - Singles - The Postal Service

I saw you standing there 

The wind blowing your hair 

It's fate my life has brought me here to you 

You walked over my way 

I didn't know what to say. 

I think that I love you. 

But maybe it's just the fumes 

Angel pumping gas 

Why won't this moment last? 

It's fate my life has brought me here today 

Soon I'll be on my way 

though I'd really like to stay 

But the road is out there calling me away. 

But I really need you here with me today. 

You asked what can I do 

I say unleaded fuel 

You open up my tank start the pump 

Grab a wet squeegee 

and wipe my windshield clean. 

When all the while my tank is filling up 

Angel pumping gas 

Why won't this moment last? 

It's fate my life has brough me here today 

Soon I'll be on my way 

though I'd really like to stay. 

But the road is out there calling me away. 

But I really need you here with me today. 

You asked will that be credit or cash 

But my chevron card was lost in the trash 

You say that you will have to pay inside 

as my heart broke in two I felt like I could die 

as I turn the key her eyes contact with me 

we share our precious moment in a glance 

and as I drive away her memories here to stay 

her deep blue eyes have left me in a trance 

Angel pumping gas 

Why won't this moment last? 

It's fate my life has brought me here today 

Soon I'll be on my way 

though I wish that I could stay 

But the road is out there calling me away. 

well maybe things are better off this way.
