[Intro]
Well, it's hard to explain
But I'll try if you let me
Well, it's hard to sustain
I'll cry if you let me

[Verse 1]
This doesn't change the way I feel about you or your place in my life
(please don't cry)
Can't you see I'm dying here a shot of broken heart that is chased with fear?

[Chorus]
Angels cry
When stars collide
I can't eat
And I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way

[Verse 2]
Intentions that were pure have turned obscure
Seconds into hours, minutes into years
Don't ask me why
(please don't cry)
I can't tell you lies..

[Chorus]
Angels cry
When stars collide
I can't eat
And I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way
(repeat)
[Bridge]
My heart, burns through
My chest, to the floor
Tearing me silently although abruptly; words can't hide as I'm taking you home, and I tried to see
Tried to understand your words as I'm taking you home

[Chorus]
Angels cry
When stars collide
I can't eat
And I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way
Angels cry
When stars collide
I can't eat
And I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way
