Lyrics

I felt a sharp uneasy pain inside
Whenever you would leave the room
I would lie awake for hours
Never wanting to believe the truth

I held a mirror to my face
Looking straight into my eyes
And holding back the tears
I would practise my disguise.

Wish that I had you all to myself
It hurts so much to share you
with somebody else
Gone so far, too late to turn back,
Wish I could make you mine,

Sweet angel dressed in black.
My sweet angel, oh yeah.

I kept our secret locked up for so long
I tried to throw away the key
I kept a diary of the things we did together
I kept a record of the nights you stayed with me.
I watched you dance in front of strangers
with their eyes all fixed on you.
I watched you move in their direction
You knew exactly what to do.

Wish that I had you all to myself
It hurts so much to share you
with somebody else
Gone so far, too late to turn back,
Wish I could make you mine,
Wish I could make you mine,
Wish I could make you mine,

Sweet angel dressed in black.
My sweet angel, oh yeah.
My sweet angel, oh,
My sweet angel, oh,
My sweet angel dressed in black.
