Darlin Angel,

Somebody, Save me,

Yeah and I feel alright,

I won't forget how I feel tonight,

'cause you're mine

You're right on time

And you look so nice...

Just when I needed you,

You had your arms around my life

You understood, said you could,

I never dreamed you would

Be there when I needed you,

You were the only land in sight.

You seem to be, all I need

Somebody sent me you when I,

Somebody somewhere heard me cry

Somebody gave me you when I,

I needed you (huh oh, huh oh)

(oooooh yeah)

Just when I needed you,

Up when my mission in my mind

It came to me, in a dream

I wondered what could it be?

And just when I needed you

You made me see that I can run

So naturally I believed,

Somebody sent me you when I,

Somebody somewhere heard me cry,

Somebody gave me you when I(gave me what I needed),

I needed you (huh oh)

Somebody sent me you, you(somewhere)

Somebody somewhere(sent me you)

(Say yeah)

Somebody gave me you,(gave me what I needed)

I needed you
