Lyrics
Sweet Angel By Lou Derr.
(Chorus)
By the time I get to you sweet angel, Will it be too late.
Our kids have all grown now, and it just wouldnt be the same.
Verse 1
We used to lie in the moonlight, with the stars shinning bright,
We used to make sweet romance, Something went wrong I don't know why.
Verse 2
I left it all and hit the road, must have been 15 years or more.I've been trying my best to hit the Big Time. You were out of sight but not out of mind.
(Chorus)
By the time I get to you sweet angel, will it be too late?
Our kids have all grown now. and it just wouldn't be the same.
(Instrumental break)
Verse 3
I sent my boy an old guitar, He had it torn up in two weeks. He tried to sing just like Daddy, But the words werent quite the same.
(Chorus)
By the time I get to you sweet angel, Will it be too late? Our kids have all grown now, and it just wouldn't be the same.
By the time I get to you sweet angel, will it be too late? Na it just wouldnt be the same,
I guess there's no one to blame.
(spoken) guitar
The end.
