Lyrics for Angie as interpreted by spliphstar

Angie Lyrics
Oh Angie, Oh Angie, when will those dark clouds disappear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried.

Angie, you're beautiful, but ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
Oh, Angie, don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain't it time we said good-bye

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, Baby, ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you come on baby, dry your eyes

But Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie, they can't say we never tried

I think the guy wants to leave his girlfriend. "Ain't it time we said goodbye". They had good times but now its just fighting and argueing. Awesome song to play!

I read in a book once that this song is referring to Angie, David Bowie's wife and that it's either a love song to her or to Bowie himself.

people have always been trying to make connections between rolling stones and bowie especially since the suspected song trading. so i really don't believe in that.
The lyric speaks for itself and I think it's chrystal clear what it means.

this song is amazing. it's been rumored to have been written one day previous to the divorce of mick jagger and his wife "angie." i think he's saying that he loves her but they can't be together anymore.

this song has held a lot more meaning for me in the past few months. i think that it just hurts him too much to try to love her. i know what that's like. i don't think that this song could have ever been bowies, listen to mick jaggers voice and tell me that he hasn't lived every word of that song.

Angie isn't Jaggers wife, it was Bowies.

Great song, awesome guitar. At parties girls always like to hear this song.

This song originated with Keith Richards. Jagger changed the title and most of the lyrics to suit his apparent lust for Angela Bowie. I think it's an overrated song. They did a better job with Wild Horses two years earlier.

Women are like Cocaine - Perhaps Mick and Bowie Can agree on this point?

Song was sung to me by my ex-husband immediately following our divorce. I still cry many years later when I hear it.

Being called Angie makes this song mean so much more to me. It reminds me of my Dad because he used to sing it to me when I was younger before he left. So whenever I hear it I get this indiscribable feeling. This song truely touches me.

Yea Kate, the feeling I can imagine is similar to what you are feeling. It's just such a beautifully sad song.

I think this song is about a man and a woman who love each other very much eventhough they fight a lot, they don't have a lot of money and they just can't have a very good life.. So it's better if they split up and go seperate ways eventhough deep inside they still love each other..

Once Keith Richard's said that he wrote this song when his daughter Angela was born, but he never admited that till recently cause he used to say he's not the type of guy "who goes writing about his babies".
