OneNamedPeter - Guardian Angel Lyrics

This creature crashed into my garden overnight
He lay there face down in my flower bed
I tiptoed over, turned his face into the light
He looked me in the eye and this is what he said

All I want to do
Is watch over you
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe from harm
This is not a dream
We can be a team
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe

I fed that angel chicken soup and tangerines
Rubbed his shoulder blades and combed his matted wings
He lived inside the cupboard underneath the stairs
Until one morning I found he wasn't there
But a voice sang

All I want to do
Is watch over you
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe from harm
This is not a dream
We can be a team
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe

So if you wake to a commotion in the night
Remember it could be an angel in mid-flight
Heaven and earth are sometimes made of stranger things
And I'm a newborn angel trying to earn my wings
All I want to do
Is watch over you
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe from harm
This is not a dream
We can be a team
I'll be your guardian and keep you safe
