On April 10 1985, Madonna’s Angel single was released by Sire Records. Angel was the third single released from the Like a Virgin album.
Written by Steve Bray and Madonna, it was one of the first songs developed for the project and, according to Madonna, was inspired by a girl who is saved by an angel, and she falls in love with Him.
Lyrics:
Why am I standing on a cloud
Every time you’re around
And my sadness disappears
Every time you are near
Bridge:
You must be an angel
I can see it in your eyes
Full of wonder and surprise
And just now I realize
Chorus:
Oooh you’re an angel
Oooh you’re an angel
Oooh you’re an angel
In disguise, I can see it in your eyes
Walking down a crowded avenue
Other faces seem like nothing next to you
And I can’t hear the traffic rushing by
Just the pounding of my heart and that’s why
(bridge)
(chorus, repeat)
You’re an angel
You’re an angel, baby
You’re an angel
You must be an angel
Now I believe that dreams come true
‘Cause you came when I wished for you
This just can’t be coincidence
The only way that this makes sense is that
(chorus, repeat)
You’re an angel
You’re an angel, baby
You’re an angel
You must be an angel, baby
Clouds just disappear
