Daily Dose 7/7 Aerosmith - Angel

“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”

Aerosmith - Angel~

The beginning of a weeks worth of Daily Aerosmith Doses Begins today! Of all the great power ballads that Aerosmith has come out with, Angel has hands down got to be my favorite. From the explosive way it starts to the chorus, everything about this song screams classic 80’s power ballad at it’s best. Since Permanent Vacation, the album that Angel is off of, Aerosmith have seemed to find a niche that works by putting at least one power ballad on every album since. That’s what most people know them for now. The younger rock enthusiasts of today know them more for their power ballads from such songs as Crazy and Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing. I grew up on Aerosmith and a cassette tape of their Aerosmith Greatest Hits  (The classic red label) was never far from my tape player. Lyrics after the fold.

Aerosmith - Angel Lyrics

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

Baby, You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight
You’re my Angel, come and make it alright

Don’t know what I’m gonna do about this feelin’ inside
Yes, it’s true, loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love, I’m nothing but a beggar

Without your love, a dog without a bone
What can I do? I’m sleepin’ in this bed alone

Baby, You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight
You’re my Angel, come and make it alright
Come and save me tonight

(Guitar Solo)

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, baby

You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight
You’re my Angel, come and make it alright

You’re my Angel, come and save me tonight
You’re my Angel, come and take me alright
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
