ANGELS AROUND YOUR BED W/M: Bob Bennett Oh, tonight I'm so far away from you How I wish I could suddenly be there To tell you "I love you" Like a hundred times before To hold you and to stroke your hair But I'm in another time zone altogether Where sleep is not easily found And a split-second prayer escapes into the air And I pray as you lay your body down ... There'll be angels around your bed, little darlin' Angels around your bed You'll be safe from harm at the dying of the day With angels around your bed Oh, absence makes my heart grow fonder When you're out of sight, I'm out of my mind If you could see everything around you, I wonder Would you be surprised to find ... There are angels around your bed, little darlin'? Angels around your bed Laughing and singing, joyful as you're sleeping Angels around your bed Angels around your bed, little darlin' Angels around your bed Surely the Lord can spare a few extra Angels around your bed
