[Verse 1]
So what now?
Am I through?
Oh, won't someone tell me what to do?
Where to go
Who to be
How to find the right way back to me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sunny day, won't you finally come my way?
If I stay so brave 'til then, will I find my way again?

[Chorus 1]
Cause all I need is an angel
I'll take a friend or a stranger
Yeah, all I need is an angel here tonight
Who will say it's all alright

[Verse 2]
So what now?
Now I see
I may not be all I dreamed I'd be
Who will help fight this fear?
Who will show me where to go from here?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I won't mind
I will find the life I find
If I only have my guide
And together we will ride

[Chorus 2]
Cause all I need is an angel
I'll take a friend or a stranger
Yeah, all I need is an angel here today
Who will help me find my way

[Bridge]
One angel, please, with a sense of fashion
One angel, please, with a bit of passion
One angel who will guide me through

[Chorus 3]
All I need is an angel
I'll take a friend or a stranger
All I need is an angel here with me
Come on, let me see my angel
To help me through all the changes
All I need is an angel
I'll be fine with an angel who's all mine

[Outro]
Won't you send me down a sign
And an angel who's all mine?

Carly Rae Jepsen is a Canadian singer and songwriter. Born in 1985, she first came to fame by finishing in third place on the TV show Canadian Idol. Shortly afterwards, she released her debut album, Tug Of War, including the Canadian top 40 singles “Tug Of War” and “Bucket.”

Three years later, she released the single “Call Me Maybe” and planned to follow it with what would have been her second album, Curiosity. However, after the song caught the ear of fellow Canadian, Justin Bieber, he referred her to his manager, Scooter Braun, which led to her signing an international deal with Interscope Records. Before long, it became one of 2012’s most enduring hits, racking up over a billion YouTube views and topping the charts in 21 countries, including the US and Canada. The aforementioned Curiosity album was cut down to EP length, and work continued on her eventual sophomore LP, Kiss. Released in September 2012, it also featured the Owl City collaboration “Good Time”, which reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Jepsen returned in March 2015 with “I Really Like You,” the lead single from her third studio album. The song received a more muted reception than her breakout hit–although it did reach #2 in the United Kingdom–and consequently, the album, E•MO•TION, failed to make a substantial impact chartwise. Despite this, the album drew in a new wave of fans with its more experimental and mature sound; such was the amount of praise among both the public and critics that a follow-up EP of album outtakes–E•MO• Side B–was released on the album’s first anniversary.
