Angels
He just came out of nowhere and walked right towards my way
He almost seemed to be aware but he didn't have much to say
Saying "okay", while he did something and I soon started my auto
The angels that life will bring most of the times you won't even know
See, I took two buses to get there on a rainy day none the less
Sometimes life can be really unfair and this was just a fine mess
In trying to retrieve my broken down car, desperation had set in
As a mechanic I'd wouldn't get one star no way could I possibly win
And when all hope was lost and I just stared down at the wet ground
And what was this going to cost and where would that money be found
When along this stranger came and really didn't even look at the motor
I didn't even catch his name but he just seemed so confident and sure
After another second or two he said "try it" and my car started right away
I was so excited I'd have to admit for this just made this whole entire day
I thanked him and shook his hand and then at my wonderful car I did stare
Till this day I just couldn't understand when I turned again no one was there
