The Subdudes Lyrics
"Angel To Be"

Mary was a friend of mine

Very close at heart to me

I had to let her fly away

Into the night an angel to be

Nothing more that hurt me so

Than to stand and say goodbye

She had always told me

?Son, this day would come?

And in her final days

In a weak voice she said

?It's time together

Together that we pray?

Don't you ever feel cheated

Coming up you had what you needed

Nothing in this world ever happens by mistake

Son, please have faith

Now the years have passed

I remember vividly

She said, ?Say with me

And the pain will pass?

Mary was a friend of mine

Very close at heart to me

I had to let her fly away

Into the night an angel to be

Into the night an angel to be

Into the night an angel to be

Into the night an angel to be

?Son, please have faith?
