Lyrics
WAITING AT THE GATE
SHE TELLS OF A PLACE IN HER DREAMS
OF BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS AND FLOWING STREAMS
SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE COULD RUN AND PLAY THERE
WHERE THERE?S NO SADNESS OR FEAR
THERE?S A LITTLE ANGEL BY HER SIDE
THAT STAYS WITH HER TO BE HER GUIDE
ILL NEVER FORGET THAT MEMORY
AND THIS IS WHAT SHE SAID TO ME
CHORUS
THE ANGELS CAME TO SEE ME LAST NIGHT
THEY TOLD ME TO TELL YOU IT?LL BE ALL RIGHT
DADDY DON?T YOU WORRY
YOU WILL SEE
THE ANGELS WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF ME
WHEN I WENT TO WAKE HER IN THE MORNING LIGHT
THE ANGELS HAD TAKEN HER IN THE NIGHT
I HELD HER CLOSE
I KISSED HER FACE
MY LITTLE GIRL WAS IN HEAVENS GRACE
CHORUS
THE ANGELS CAME TO SEE ME LAST NIGHT
THEY TOLD ME TO TELL YOU IT?LL BE ALL RIGHT
DADDY DON?T YOU WORRY
YOU WILL SEE
THE ANGELS WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF ME
NOW UP IN HEAVEN
SHE?S AMONG FRIENDS
AND I HAVE GROWN OLD
WAITING FOR THE DAY
TO SEE HER AGAIN
KNOWING WHAT I WAS TOLD
CHORUS
THE ANGELS CAME FOR ME IN THE NIGHT
THEY TOLD ME THAT
IT?LL BE ALL RIGHT
THEY SAID COME FOLLOW
AND YOU WILL SEE
THERE MY LITTLE GIRL
WAS WAITING AT THE GATE FOR ME
THERE MY LITTLE GIRL
WAS WAITING AT THE GATE FOR ME
