Angel Fingers Forever

Angel Fingers: A Teen Ballad

 22/09/1973
 1 week at No. 1
  and
 10 weeks on chart

As I was lying in my bedroom fast asleep
Filled with those famous teenage pictures that you keep
Will Dion still be so important to you on your wedding day?

Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I’d sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That’s why I fell in love with you

I drove my motorcycle to that small café
That’s when I heard our favourite record start to play
If I’m not singing in a suit that’s clinging
Please don’t walk away

Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I’d sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That’s why I fell in love with you

If I could land a job with that cool rockin' band
You’d notice me with that red guitar in my hand
With money in my jeans my baby
We’d have all these things we planned

Angel Fingers, Angel Fingers
How I’d sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That’s why I fell in love with you

Oh Oh Angel, Angel Fingers
How I’d sing for the things you do
How it lingers, Angel Fingers
That’s why I fell in love with you

Forever

I saw my brand new baby
 Walk out the door
 And If I ever change her
 Just couldn't take any more
 And I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever.

How can you tell your sweetheart
 It's turned out hard to be true
 She's just a mama's baby
 Maybe I'll find a girl new
 But I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever.

 Up, down like a roller coaster
 With your feet set on the ground
 There ain't no use in me turning you down
 Ah ah

 I found my teenage heartaches
 Here right next door to a dream
 This movie ends tomorrow
 I'll need a new movie queen

 And I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever

 Ooh ooh, Forever
 Ah ah, oh darling
 Ooh ooh, Forever
 Ah ah, ooh ooh

 I saw my brand new baby
 Walk out the door
 And if I ever change her
 Just couldn't take any more
 And I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever.

Oh yeah and I wonder
 Who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever.

I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, Forever

 Ah ah, oh
 And I wonder who she'll be
 If she'll put the hurt on me
 Forever, oh oh oh oh....
