Angel Yesterday

I've been living on the highway
It's the only road I know
Forgive me if I don't remember your name in the morning
I barely know my own

There's no time for me to stop here
No time to feel the pain
I'm a sinner for tomorrow
You're an angel yesterday

You caught me as I was leaving
Asked: Won't you stay a while?
Said: Be careful how you see me, honey
You don't want the miles

By the time I see the sunrise
You'll be dead 'long side the road
I'll be somewhere in the limelight
While the vultures pick flesh off of your bones

So be careful who you pray to
And go on while you still have your faith
I'm a sinner for tomorrow
You're an angel yesterday

Be careful who you pray to
Go on while you still have your faith
I'm a sinner for tomorrow
You're an angel yesterday

I'm a sinner for tomorrow
You're an angel yesterday
