Angel of mercy
Come sit by my side
Have you some mercy
Mercy for me
I’m destined for sadness
Heartache and pain
She’s withdrawn her love
And said, for me
To do the same
But my heart, you see
Has a mind of its’ own
It keeps on loving
Though her love has moved on
It cries and it bleeds
Through the cold and the rain
Never knowing its’ journey
Is one taken in vain
So have you some mercy
A little to spare
It could sure use some warmth
From someone who cares
I’m not asking for much
Just something to mend the break
For I’m not quite sure
How much more it can take
It’s losing its’ strength
Will and might
And may never recover
From when she left
That night
So angel of mercy
I plead, beg and cry
Can you spare me some mercy
Lest my heart should die
