I hug myself closely
I'm scared and so cold
With no place to call home
Like this, I won't grow old
But then a light hit me
An angel came to say,
"Hello there,
I'm here to help you today"
She took my hand
Pulled me to my feet
She gave me new clothes
And even something to eat
Starving, I gobbled it
Gone so quick
She gave me some more
And my lips I did lick
Then she brought me closer
And whispered in my ear,
"I'm going to get you a home,
I'm going to bring people near"
She sent me walking
And my head stayed down
I was again scared and lonely
And on my face a frown
But that's when I found you
And I fell to the floor
You helped me to my feet
I suddenly realised I wanted more
You introduced yourself
And said a friendly hi
Had you seen me before?
And then I started to cry
You should have ran away
But you stood your ground
And you held my hand
While I made that awful sound
I cried and cried
And you comforted me
You opened my eyes
And made me see
I needed you
To make me be
I needed you
To make me, me
The angel saved me
That day, it's true
That angel was me
I bet you never knew
To pick yourself up
Is sometimes what you need
Put a smile on for the world
And maybe, somehow, you'll succeed
So "out with the old"
That's what the angel told
As she held my hand tight
I'd be a new person tonight
