Aerosmith Angel

“Angel” is a song performed by American hard rock band Aerosmith. It was written by lead singer Steven Tyler and professional songwriting collaborator Desmond Child. It was released in 1988 as the second single from the band’s massively successful 1987 album Permanent Vacation. It quickly climbed to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, the second highest chart performance for any Aerosmith single.

A classic heavy metal power ballad, it incorporates many of the stylings of rock ballads, including driving electrical guitar riffs by Joe Perry and Brad Whitford, pianos and violin sounds (from a keyboard), an emotional delivery of lyrics by Steven Tyler, a strong rhythm by bassist Tom Hamilton, and well-placed steady drum beats by Joey Kramer.

I’m alone

Yeah, I don’t know if I can face the night

I’m in tears and the cryin’ that I do is for you

I want your love – Let’s break the walls between us

Don’t make it tough – I’ll put away my pride

Enough’s enough I’ve suffered and I’ve seen the light

CHORUS:

Baby

You’re my angel

Come and save me tonight

You’re my angel

Come and make it all right

Don’t know what I’m gonna do

About this feeling inside

Yes it’s true – Loneliness took me for a ride

Without your love – I’m nothing but a begger

Without your love – a dog without a bone

What can I do I’m sleeping in this bed alone

CHORUS

Come and save me tonight

You’re the reason I live

You’re the reason I die

You’re the reason I give

When I break down and cry

Don’t need no reason why

Baby, Baby

CHORUS

You’re my angel

Come and save me tonight

you’re my angel

Come and take me allright

Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight,

Come and save me tonight, Come and save me tonight
