Rough demo of the first song I ever wrote when I was about 19. Written after a good friend's daughter was still born at 8.5 months and also in memory of the baby my mother miscarried when I was 5 or 6 years old. Lyrics are a bit cheese in places, I was in desperate need of some vibrato, and timing was way off in parts, but it brings back good memories of that time in my life. Bass and 2nd guitar solo by Paul Martin and vocals by Anthony Hills. Dodgy sound quality is because I only had a dubbed cassette copy!

Little Angel

And she was white like an angel, pure and perfect like an angel
And they were talking 'bout the China Grove when she walked in
I've been a fool all day, a crazy smiling fool all day
And time means absolutely nothing now she's here

I'd like to feel this good every day of my life, I looked into your eyes and said
Honey everything's gonna change, but everything's gonna be all right

Taken by surprise yesterday, nothing's been the same since yesterday
And before we even knew it, we were on the road to another life
It's like we're coming to a different door, one we've never been through before
And it's one we're not afraid to open, been waiting so long

I'd like to feel this good every day of my life, I looked into your eyes and said
Honey everything's gonna change, but everything's gonna be all right

(Georgy)

I'd like to feel this good every day of my life, I looked into your eyes and said
Honey everything's gonna change, but everything's gonna be all right
Now she's here and we're so happy, now she's here and we're just fine

And we're so fine
And she's so beautiful
Just like an angel
