Subject: Wings of An Angel From: roxiesmama (inactive) Date: 27 May 99 - 07:13 AM I am looking for the words to a song that keeps repeating the same sentence in my mind. The only one I can remember. If I had the wings of an angel- over these prison walls I would fly- I'd fly to the arms of my darling and there's where I'd stay 'till I die Can anyone remember this song and perhaps let me know. Thanks, Carolyn crchenry@sprynet.com |
Subject: RE: Wings of An Angel From: Ferrara Date: 27 May 99 - 07:24 AM Search the DT database for Prisoner* and you'll get a bunch of songs including The Prisoner's Song. Thanks for the reminder -- my mother used to sing this, and I've been wanting to look up the words. - Rita Ferrara |

Oh I wish I had someone to love me |

Subject: RE: Wings of An Angel From: GUEST,wxgal Date: 11 Nov 01 - 12:39 AM I guess i picked this up a little late, but i love this song and I've never known the proper title. My grandmother sang it to me often and I remembered most of the words, but wanted to know all the lyrics. This site and the forum have been very helpful. wxgal |
