And left some angels with a broken heart

Aaron Neville, How Could I Help But Love You. Written Naomi Neville. 1967.

When you hold me close
Honey, you’re the most
Baby, you set my soul on fire
Ever since I met you
Honey, I had to get you
You have been my one desire

How could I help but love you
With a love so true
You send cold chills down my spine
If we would ever part
It wouldn’t be your fault
Yeah, it would be all mine

If you would ever leave me
Honey, it sure would grieve me
Baby, it would break my heart
But I won’t let that worry me
This love will always be
It was meant right from the start

Gabriels, One and Only. 2023.

True, maybe
You’ve done your share of wrong
And left some angels with a broken heart
Come what may, I’m standing with you
