[Verse 1]
I pull out a picture of our family tree
"Who's that" ask my daughter, "she looks like me"
That was your grandma when she was my age
And that's me beside her in a dress that she made

I remember her smile
I remember her touch
I wish she could've known you, she have loved you so much

[Pre-Chorus]
As I tuck her in bed and I turn out the light
A little girl's voice asked me what was she like

[Chorus]
She laughed like I laugh
She criеd like I cry
And when you look close, you see hеr in my eyes
These are her hands holding you tight
And she'll be the angel to keep you save tonight

[Verse 2]
Well many years later, my little girl's grown
She's calling from collage, "mamma I'm coming home"
"I've givin' this boy all my soul
I think that it's love, mamma, how will I know"

[Chorus]
Well he'll laughed when you laugh
He'll cried when you cry
And when you look up, you see love in his eyes
You're holding his hand
The world just seems right
And he'll be the angel to keep you save tonight

[Verse 3]
She pulled up a chair beside my bed
She was 3 months along, I had 3 months left
"Mamma I'm scared," she said "what will I do?"
"All my life I've depended on you"

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby don't worry, you'll bring her up right
If you want to know; tell you what she'll be like

[Chorus]
She'll laughed like I laugh
She'll cried like I cry
And when you look close, you see me in their eyes
Her tiny hands are holding you tight
And I'll be the angel to keep you save tonight
