How Could an Angel Break My Heart

Toni Braxton

   G
1. I heard he sang a lullaby
   Em                            C
   I heard he sang it from his heart
                                    D
   When I found out thought I would die
                             G
   Because that lullaby was mine
   
2. I heard he sealed it with a kiss
   He gently kissed her cherry lips
   I found that so hard to believe
   Because his kiss belonged to me

   G                             Em
R: How could an angel break my heart?
                               C
   Why didn't he catch my falling star?
                            Am
   I wish I didn't wish so hard
                              G
   Maybe I wished our love apart
                                C
   How could an angel break my heart?

3. I heard her face was white as rain
   Soft as a rose that blooms in May
   He keeps her picture in a frame
   And when he sleeps he calls her name
   
4. I wonder if she makes him smile
   The way he used to smile at me
   I hope she doesn't make him laugh
   Because his laugh belongs to me

   I'm trying to understand
