When you think of love
It's no big disgrace
Hoping to gain admission
(Trouble is)
You got your higher aim
You think of compromise
Got your ambition
(Trouble is)
(Trouble is)
(Trouble is)
Angels don't fall in love
You don't believe that it's true
The trouble is there's always
When push comes to shove
(Trouble is)
When push comes to shove
You stand at the gate
While you're knocking on all the wrong doors
Everything you're dreaming of
I see you missing so much
Those angels never fall in love
You should know better, darling
You think she's
The trouble is
Trouble is, trouble is
Someone there to take your place
(Trouble is)
She won't give permission tonight
How long are you willing to wait?
Someday, she'll take you all the way there
You hope and you pray
(You should know)
Well, I can see it
Angels don't fall in love, no, no, no
(And there you wait)
(Trouble is
When the sun goes down
The trouble is
You think you're spiritual
There's something left for you
There's no loss of grace
(You should know)
And on some mission
Looking for some angel's touch
(And wait and wait)
And the trouble is
When I look in your eyes
You should know better, darling
