There was a time
I think it was December
Just like a fire
I lost my mind
This I do remember
I was a child
Pretty and wild
I thought I was an angel
Oh what a day
That wonderful day
I know that
God he heard me pray
Oh on that day
He heard me say
I ll spread my wings and fly away
Just like the sky
I don t mind stormy weather
Cause it s the power that
I once know
And it makes me feel better
I have a child
She s pretty and wild
And this I m going to tell her
Oh what a day
That wonderful day
I know that
God he heard me pray
Oh on that day
He heard me say
I ll spread my wings and fly away
When I grow old
I know I won t forget
That I m still that child
Pretty and wild
In this late December
I ll fly away
But the story remains and
I hope you will remember
You re an angel
Everybody sing
We are angels and together we can fly away
Oh what a day
That wonderful day
I know that
God he heard me pray
Oh on that day
He heard me say
I ll spread my wings and fly away
