Advice from a stranger you should take with a grain of salt
But, son, I ain't no stranger to that split-tongued Devil's talk
And I can see in your expression, there's hurt behind that smile
And I've been in your shoes, I've walked every single mile
Dancing on the dark side with a heavy cross to bear
Entertainin' Heaven-sent angels unaware
No matter where I went, I was completely incomplete
Only love can make the bitter bittersweet
Just advice from a stranger on the street
He didn't wear a halo, He had carpenter's hands
Said, "I'm here to build the pine box to lay your old life in"
I couldn't help but listen
And I couldn't move an inch
More than gold and silver, I needed His two cents
Dancing on the dark side with a heavy cross to bear
Entertainin' Heaven-sent angels unaware
No matter where I go, I'm completely incomplete
Hoping love can make the bitter bittersweet
I heard it from an angel on the street
Now the things I wanna do are the things I don't
Sometimes I say I will, then I say I won't
Caught between the "woulda"
The "coulda" and the "should"
I'm trying to believe that He will work it out for good
Work it out for good
Dancing on the dark side with a heavy cross to bear
Entertainin' Heaven-sent angels unaware
No matter where I go, I'm completely incomplete
Hoping love can make the bitter bittersweet
I heard it from an angel on the street
Heard it from an angel on the street
I heard it from an angel
