My Little Angel Composer(s): George Young; Harry Vanda Performer(s): William Shakespeare (aka John Cave)
It was on a cold December afternoon Doesn't seem that long ago I was sitting on my feet by my old fireplace When in walked my little girl home from school And I could see that something was wrong By the tears that were rolling down her face
And she said Daddy, Daddy at school today Somebody told me a lie And after hearin' what she had heard I told her not to cry It hurt to see her cry
Because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when she smiles Oh yes, she's my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see her cry
What she heard was that angel's didn't really exist That they were just a part of fables, fairytales, any ol' how Of course there are angels I said Everybody has an angel that takes care of them In fact I know there's a real live angel right now
And she said Daddy, Daddy please tell me where And tell me how do you know And I said, easy, if you listen close It's not too far to go And this is how I know
Because you're my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel when you smile Oh yes, you're my, my little angel My little angel, and I don't ever wanna see you cry
Now I miss her dearly since she left that day But I know she is near me every hour, every day Because she's, because she's my, my little angel My little angel, my little angel, yes she's mine
Ah, she's so fine, my little angel, my little angel And I know that she's with me all the time With me all the time, my little angel My little angel, my, my little angel
