Be My Angel Lyrics
To me it sounds like it is one of those impossible relationships, they want each other, they lust after each other, it is so crazy it makes them feel things they never felt before, makes them do things they wouldn't do if they were not inlove.
At the same time it sounds as though she feels like he is playing her, like it is all a game, she wants it to be total and she doesn't want him to give up on them even if it is hard sometimes. but he should not deceive her he should just admit that he needs her just like she needs him.
i think you've got it.
i think you've got it.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Hope's voice just fills my heart in some way. Beautiful song, on a great album. Kinda a shame they never got popular, but at the same time I like that they didn't, it's like a hidden gem.
the drawn out heartache one feels as it becomes clear a relationship won’t work in the end. too deep to call things off for the fear of losing what’s dearest. the last line hits.
this song is great. though its very similar in the begining to "fade into you" i think this song is about lusting over someone.
I think the first person is correct. It's about lusting after someone. And I think it's the singer of the song who's being lusted after. When she says "be my angel," she's accepting his invitation. She doesn't want the man to think his efforts are in vain; she doesn't want him to think it's useless or to forget it. She has an effect on him and makes him do things he otherwise wouldn't. Maybe she's been hurt in the past, and that's why she asks him to be kind to her.
I do love the song. I think it's about man's relationship with god. And, perhaps, it criticizes those whose faith is gain based, or those who keep their faith out of fear or simply tradition or habit. Though, I do think either the last two verses should be cut, or maybe just the second to last verse should be cut (the one starting with "just be my angel"), the song seems to suffer from unnecessary ending lyrics.
