Amaj7               Abmaj7  
Looking in my mirror

Verse 2  

Love to run my fingers  
Softly while you sigh  
Love came and possessed you  
Bringing sparkles to your eyes  

Like a trip to heaven  
Heaven is the prize  
And I'm so glad I found you, girl  
You're an angel in disguise  

{Chorus}

You're an angel in disguise
