Guardian Angel

Some folks live their life not knowing
Where they've been or where they're going
I'm not one but I know some
I've been selfish with affection
I threw it all in one direction
To turn around and then I found
The ones I loved I'd let 'em down
There must be a guardian angel
I lived my life like no tomorrow
A lot of laughs and such sweet sorrow
But most the time I took for granted
And heaven knows somebody planned it
There must be someone watching over me
A guardian angel guiding me
A guardian angel just for me
About the company I'm keeping
I slipped away while they were sleeping
I kissed the boys and made them cry
Oh I never stopped to say good-bye
Some folks live their life not knowing
Where they've been or where they're going
I've been up to living it down
And heaven knows I know how now
There must be someone watching over me
A guardian angel guiding me
A guardian angel just for me
A guardian angel watching me
A guardian angel just for me
A guardian angel...
