I held an angel in my arms
I held him tight
Despite everyone
Had hands all over him
Despite the plight
I held an angel in my arms
Like a girl holds on
to her first flower
I held him high
with all my power
And yes, I cried
And I was so sad,
Then got mad
When years later
he took the hand of god
And said hello to heaven
On his final flight
Even though it has been
so long ago now
I will never forget
I held an angel in my arms
At the ballroom on
that magical night
I held him tight
Despite everyone
Had hands all over him
Despite the plight
I held an angel in my arms
Like a girl holds on
to her first flower
I held him high
with all my power
And yes, I cried
And I was so sad,
Then got mad
When years later
he took the hand of god
And said hello to heaven
On his final flight
Even though it has been
so long ago now
I will never forget
I held an angel in my arms
At the ballroom on
that magical night
