Riley Green - Runnin' With an Angel

Well, no one can ever say we lacked in passion
Truth is we were burning like a flame
And looking back, I couldn't tell you when it happened
Has it been twenty years, or twenty days?

I should've picked her over whiskey
Laid down my foolish pride
Knew it felt different when she kissed me
I guess I've never been
Kissed goodbye

Well, I've tried other women
They never felt the same
I think what hurts the most is knowing I'm to blame
And I wish that I could change it
And it wouldn't be this painful
The truth is that the devil had no business
Runnin' with an angel

Well, your eyes are like a North Alabama sunset
And your smile is like Florida in the spring
I keep on booking shows
But you ain't come yet
Even though you're in every song I sing

Can't say I don't deserve it
For putting you through hell
People keep asking if it was worth it
I tell them it's still to soon to tell

Well, I've tried every whiskey
From Jim to Jack to Crown
But losing you's the only thing
That burns me going down

And I wish that I could change it
And it wouldn't be this painful
The truth is that the devil had no business
Runnin' with an angel

The truth is you better off alone
And the best thing I can do is let you go

Well, holding you was heaven
But losing you was hell
I should've known the devil had no business

Runnin' with an angel
Runnin' with an angel
Runnin' with an angel
