Show me a bridge, they say don't burn it

And I'll soak it to the bolts in gasoline

Give me a lesson and tell me to learn it

And I'll make damn sure I didn't learn a thing

Living on the edge just trying to edge a little bit closer

Running out of luck like a field full of three leaf clovers

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning

Them hearts that don't keep tabs

on the times you let 'em down

And I fought that fire inside of me

That fueled those nights that lied to me

Like that bottle lying empty on the floor

Sometimes it takes an angel

To show the devil the door

Well, I've been tempted as long as I've been breathing

But these days the devil don't hold his breath

And she got a habit of breaking all my bad ones

And bringing out what good I've got left

Anybody else, hell, they'd just pass and judge me

But she just loves me

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning

Them hearts that don't keep tabs

on the times you let 'em down

And I fought that fire inside of me

That fueled those nights that lied to me

Like that bottle lying empty on the floor

Sometimes it takes an angel

To show the devil the door

Thank God for hands that saved a sinking man from drowning

She could've counted me out more times than I could count

And I fought that fire inside of me

That fueled those nights that lied to me

Like that bottle lying empty on the floor

Sometimes it takes an angel

To show the devil the door

And sometimes it takes an angel

To show the devil the door
