My Blue Angel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was just a little girl, I was frightened by the night The darkness always made me feel alone My mama brought an angel in and set it by my bed And I still keep it with me, though I've grown [Chorus] My blue angel My blue angel, my blue angel Every night, she's watchin' over me [Verse 2] Tonight, as I lay in my bed, the late news on TV Says our safe world has almost disappeared As the blue light from my angel's wings reminds me of the time When shadows were the only thing to fear [Chorus] I saw my blue angel My blue angel, my blue angel Every night, she's watchin' over me [Verse 3] And I can't turn my head away from everything I see The homeless and the violence, with gunfire in the street Tell me I'm not dreamin', thinkin' everything will be okay But my blue angel shows me we've got to keep the faith [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] When I was just a little girl, starin' high up in the sky I'd dream that I had wings and I could fly [Chorus] Like my blue angel My blue angel, my blue angel Every night, she's givin' faith to me My blue angel, my blue angel Every night she's watchin' over me
