While I do enjoy the punk influences and vocal harmony of this song it pretty much brings me to tears every time I hear it. It makes me wonder whether or not other people actually listen to the lyrics of the songs they like. In my observations of my teen-aged daughter I find it hard to believe that she actually ‘listens’ to the words. While she may know all the words and sing along to alot of the crap she listens to; there’s just no way she’s actually listening. She loves this song, thinks it’s great. Maybe it’s a matter of life experiences that makes it heart-wrenching for me and a lack of understanding that makes it a pop hit for her. I give Hinder a B+ for their vocal stylings and musical talent. Overall, I like their work though I would like to have a heart to heart with the band about these lyrics. Keep up the good work guys!
“Lips Of An Angel”
Artist: Hinder
Honey why are you calling me so late
It’s kinda hard to talk right now
Honey why are you crying is everything okay
I gotta whisper cause I can’t be too loud
Well, my girl’s in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel It’s funny that you’re calling me tonight
And yes I’ve dreamt of you too
And does he know you’re talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don’t think she has a clue
Well my girl’s in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angelIt’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel
(And I never wanna say goodbye)
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel
Honey why are you calling me so late
