The Angels Listened In

by Tom Parker

[With loving tribute to the Crests' original "The Angels Listened In" (1959)]

Angels, angels, the angels listened in
Angels, angels, oh the angels listened in

Why does it seem I'd never win
Losing love was how it'd always been
    And then one day I said a prayer
    And hoped someone would hear
And the angels, oh the angels listened in

Well, at first I thought no one heard my plea
Then a girl straight from heaven came to me
    The angels sent me you
    And then at last I knew
That the angels, oh the angels listened in

When I fell in love, with their help from up above
Angels sent me you for my own true love
How can I repay
Well I guess all I can say, is
Angels forever more!

Through the years our love has grown and grown
Now I see what the angels've always known
    Love is just nearby
    If you give it a try
Cos' the angels, oh the angels listened in


When I fell in love, with their help from up above  
Angels sent me you for my own true love
How can I repay
Well I guess all I can say, is
Angels forever more!

So if it seems that all love has passed you by
Here's one thing that I recommend you try
    Don't be too shy to pray
    And then maybe one day
Oh the angels, oh the angels listen in

I know angels, oh the angels listened in
I say angels, oh the angels listened in
