I set my guardian angels free
They've done a good job watching me
A time and place for everything
Now take my child under wing
'Cause every baby we adore
Soon is crawling 'cross the floor
Then every step is just one more
Toward the day they're walking out your door
Guardian angels,
Will you teach them how to fly?
Over the clouds, over the shadows
In the glow of morning light
Over the sea, over the mountains
Won't you keep them by your side?
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Did I teach my child well?
It's been heaven, it's been hell
A joyous trial through the years
To pass the test, despite our fears
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Over the clouds, over the shadows
In the glow of morning light
Over the sea, over the mountains
Won't you keep them by your side?
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Heavenly angels, watch from above
Wrap them safe in love
Heavenly angels, guardian angels
Nobody let me know
The hardest part is letting go
Did I teach my child well?
It's been heaven, it's been hell
A joyous trial through the years
We pass the test, shedding tears
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Over the clouds, over the shadows
In the glow of morning light
Over the sea, over the mountains
Won't you keep them by your side?
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Oh, guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
Guardian angels
Will you teach them how to fly?
