Little Angel Boy

 

Little Angel boy of mine

Where did you leave your wings when you came down to me?

Did you fold them neatly and put them away

Where none but God could see?

 

Did some Ruling Power above

Bid you leave your Celestial home

To come down to earth to gladden my heart

Did They tell you I was sand and alone?

 

Did you then realize what it meant

To leave a land where all was love

To come to a land of sorrow and pain

And will you go back someday

And leave my heart broken and sad?
