Lyrics

Unwanted Angel
She was just fifteen when she got the news
It would kill her mom and dad if they ever knew
Waiting for the taxi, she wondered what to do
Her boyfriend said it wasn't his
Didn't need anything like this
What hope could they give a baby?
And he had a life to live
Her spirit broken on the floor
The pain inside can't be ignored
A baby fighting for a chance to live
Unwanted angel
I wonder what you'd say
You're wings are growing stronger,
As you wait for the perfect day
Unwanted angel
You're heart is beating wild
You're someone's little child, but not today
She kept her secret until one day
Her best friend took her to a place
She waited for the doctor to take it all away
She heard a voice from deep inside
Bowed her head and then she cried
Please forgive me Lord,
Help me make it through the night
The world can be a cruel place
Close your eyes and turn your face
In a minute everything will be alright
Unwanted angel
I wonder what you'd say
You're wings are growing stronger,
As you wait for the perfect day
Unwanted angel
You're heart is beating wild
You're someone's little child, but not today
I need someone to carry me
Don't leave me all alone
I only want the chance to be someone you can love
I want to run and feel the sun
Shining on my face
Let me live ...Let me breathe
Unwanted angel...
