Lyrics:

Spoken:
I got a call the other day
It was my sister, Carolyn, sayin´
´Aretha, come by when you can
I´ve got somethin´ that I wanna say´
And when I got there she said
´You know rather than go through a long drawn out thing,
I think the melody on the box, will help me explain´

Gotta find me an angel, just fly away with me
Gotta find me an angel, ooh and set me free
My heart is without a whole, I don´t want to be in love
I gotta find me an angel in my life, in my life
Too long have I loved you so unattached within
So much that I know that I need somebody so
So I´ll just go on hoping that I find me someone
Find me an angel in my life
In my life

Instrumental

I know there must be someone, somewhere for me
Oh I lived too long without the love of someone
And there´s no misery ooooooh oooh like the misery
I feel in me, gotta find me an angel in (in my life)
(You´ll meet him now don´t you worry)
My life (keep lookin´ and just keep cookin´)
My life (he´ll be there, now don´t you worry)
My life
