The angels listened in, when they heard me praying

The angels listened in, when they heard me saying

"Please send me some one to love

Send the one I'm thinking of."

My darling, the angels sent you



The angels listened in, when they heard me crying

The angels listened in, there's no denying

They sent one with lovely charms

One who really thrills my arms,

My darling, the angels sent you.



I searched everywhere

Just to find someone who cares

They came down to interrupt

Just as I had given up.



The angels listened in and brought you near me

The angels listened in, I love them dearly.

They gave me the whole wide world

Wrapped up in one little girl,

My darling, the angels sent you.
