An Angel Sleeps Beside Me Every Night

(Album: Eddy Arnold Sings For Housewives & Other Lovers - 1972)

An angel sleeps beside me every night
Without her love my world would fade away
Yes an angel sleeps beside me every night
And because of her my sun shines every day

Sometimes when the outside world starts to get me down
And I'm sure that I can't make it 'til the dawn
Just knowing she's upon the bed beside the place I lay my head
Revives the faith I have in going on

'Cause an angel sleeps beside me every night
Without her love my world would fade away
Yes an angel sleeps beside me every night
And because of her my sun shines every day

Oh it's hard to put in simple words the love I have for her
In spite of all my faults she carries on
Not one whimper or a cry her warm and tender by my side
And I'm thankful for the woman in my song

'Cause an angel sleeps beside me every night
Without her love my world would fade away
Yes an angel sleeps beside me every night
And because of her my sun shines every day
Yes an angel sleeps beside me every night
Without her love my world would fade away
Yes an angel sleeps beside me every night
