Slaid Cleaves - No Angel Knows

On a desert highway, an old chevrolet
My engine dyin', tryin' to get away
Thinkin' 'bout the consequences of the road I chose
Now I know what no angel knows

She was no angel, a woman of the world
I thought I'd learn from this mystery girl
She pulled a diamond from this heart of coal
Now I know what no angel knows

No angel knows the sin of a broken vow
No angel knows the suffering of love
No angel knows the shame of a fallen man
Now I know what no angel knows

I held her close with all my might
I held her 'till her face turned white
Now my heart sleeps where the cold wind blows
Now I know what no angel knows

Faith walks on water, hope brings it home
I never thought I'd end up alone
I once had a true heart, that was long ago
Now I know, now I know

No angel knows the sin of a broken vow
No angel knows the suffering of love
No angel knows the shame of a fallen man
Now I know what no angel knows
I once had a true heart, that's how it goes
Now I know what no angel knows
