Lyrics
- Days were long and nights were endless
Overhead the skies were gray
Seemed all wrong to be so friendless
And then one day you came my way
Chorus
Angela Mia, you are my Angel dear
The Heavens sent you down to me from up above
Angela Mia, you are my guiding star
A sweet Madonna that I honor and I love
You’re like the sunshine in all its splendor
And I surrender each time you smile
Angela Mia, my pray’rs are answered now
And I am thankful for Angela Mia
- Ever since the day you found me
You have filled my heart with bliss
For you put your arms around me
And then you sweetly whispered this
