(Ben Peters)
It was in the early morning
When I looked through sleepy eyes
To find I had an angel by my side
It was in the early morning
That I first would realize
I could never love another if I tried.
In the middle of the morning
Working twenty miles away
I would stop to rest and think of her a while
Of how she'd stand there in the doorway
As I left the house each day
And the love so plain to see in angel's smile.
And I'd always call her
When noon time came around
Knowin' she'd been waitin' by the phone
And though I was only
On the other side of town
You'd think it's been a week that I've been gone.
But it was in the early evening
When I finally made it home
She'd come running to my arms when I'd call
It was in the early evening
When our world became our own
And that's the time I miss angel most of all.
And that's the time I miss angel most of all...
