You were the little angel
Everybody noticed you
Had a shining light of beauty
Only I could see through
And I thought you were something special
Even as a child at play
But you said a man in shining armor
Would carry you off someday
(chorus)
Take my love wherever you go
Whatever you do
I'll try to be strong for you
Keep my face inside of your mind
Don't let it fade
Or let it get lost to time
'Cause when you finally see through the veil
Through all of the hopes and dreams
Your fairy tales
I will be waiting for you
Waiting for you, if all else fails
If all else fails
You said there was something out there
That you and you alone could find
And I tried in vain to tell you
It was all inside your mind
But I'd rather let you have your freedom
Than live with the bitterness
But it's so damn hard to do it
So baby just remember this
(repeat chorus)
No matter how it ends
I'll always be your friend
Don't ever be afraid
I'm with you, I'm with you
And when you finally see through the veil
Through all of your hopes and dreams
Your little fairy tales
I will be waiting for you
Waiting for you, if all else fails
If all else fails...
Don't be afraid...
