歌词：
There's a man standing on the corner
With a sign sayin "will work for food"
You know the man
You see him every morning
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wondering when the lights going to turn green
Never knowing what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean
What if he's an angel sent here from Heaven
And he's making certain that you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in his face
Knowing deep down it could have
been his saving grace
What if he's an angel
There's a man
There's a woman
Living right above you in apartment G
There's alot of noise coming from the ceiling
And it don't sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words and his anger fly
Come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye
What if she's an angel sent here from heaven
And she's making certain that you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have
been her saving grace
What if she's an angel
A little girl on daddy's lap
Hiding her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel
Most people do
But what if you were sitting in her daddy's shoes
Maybe she's an angel
Sent here from Heaven
And she's making certain you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she's an angel
中文翻译:
一个男子站在街角
身边的标示告之
他已失去了工作
你每天清晨都能见到他
只是你从不施舍
你安逸的坐在窗前
寻思着何时黄昏来临
却不曾考虑
那男子口袋中的几元钱对他的意义
倘若他是天使
从天间下凡
观察你是否用心尽力去帮助另一个人
兄弟
你会通过这个测试吗
你可以一如既往的打发日子
并抹去那张脸在你脑海中记忆
但你深知自己曾有过帮助他的机会
倘若他是天使
你的公寓楼上居住着一对夫妻
透过天花板
你能听到争执声此起彼伏
当他的怒吼声传来
你可以安然的坐在屋内开响电视的音量
而次日
当看着她受伤的印记
你是否还有勇气注视她的眼睛
倘若她是天使
从天间下凡
观察你是否用心尽力去帮助另一个人
兄弟
你会通过这个测试吗
你可以一如既往的打发日子
并抹去那张脸在你脑海中记忆
但你深知自己曾有过帮助她的机会
倘若她是天使
一个小女孩坐在父亲的膝上
她的棒球帽
遮掩住她病痛的模样
你可以象其他很多人那样转换频道
但是
倘若你是女孩的父亲
你会如何感受
