He showed me her picture his eyes showed his pride
And I knew he'd never believe that she'd lie
He swears that he loves her and he will till the end
He thinks she's an angel but I knew her when

Yes I knew her when she was mine
And just like him my love was true and blind
But I learned the hard way so will he in the end
Cause he thinks she's an angel but I knew her when

[ piano - steel ]
Yes he calls her his angel his eyes all aglow
But her halo will turnish when she lets him go
I'd like to warn him but I just lose a friend
For he thinks she's an angel but I knew her when

Yes I knew her when she was mine...
