We married young and people said that I was still too wild But love accept no boundaries she soon grew heavy with my child And she never seems to notice the little hurtin' things I do If she did she let me make things right by saying I love you
There must be a thousand angels watchin' night and day Just making sure that fools like me don't throw their lives away That she's still here is proof enough for anyone to see That heaven watches over fools like me
There were times when I noticed a certain sadness in her eyes And other things like waking to hear her cryin' in the night And I wonder just how many other heartaches I fail to see Lookin' back I ask myself what made her stand by me
There must be a thousand angels watchin' night and day Just making sure that fools like me don't throw their lives away That she's still here is proof enough for anyone to see That heaven watches over fools like me That heaven watches over fools like me
