Cover art for Angel lyrics by Massive Attack

I see it as a man from a more sheltered life who meets this girl who is beautiful and perfect to him but also from the "wrong side." He believes that she could have any man she wants and calls her his angel because out of all the people, she chose him.

Ultimately I think it's a love song. It will be my future wedding song :P
