My Blue Angel

[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
