Don't you cry, sweet angel
I'll be away for a while
I say goodbye, my angel
And I would like to see you smile

Do you know, sweet angel
I love you more than I could say
If you're afraid, remember
You are always on my mind
My love will help you through the night

And I need you to understand
Soon I will be back again
If you feel there is no tomorrow
Just think of me, my little friend

Now close your eyes, sweet angel
And everything will be alright
When you grow up you'll understand
What I've been going through
But now you ask me why

And I need you to understand ...

Don't you know I have to go
But I'll come back and stay forever
By your side, you are the light
Of my days when we're together
Don't you cry little angel,
All the dreams we held so close
Will soon come true
I'll be forever with you

And I need you to understand ...
