Transcription

That fateful night the car was stalled
Upon the railroad track
I pulled you out and we were safe
But went runnig back

Teen Angel can you hear me
Teen Angel can you see me
Are you somewhere up above
And am I still your own true love

What was it you were looking for
That took your life that night
They said they found my high school ring
Clutched in your fingers tight

Just sweet sixteen and now you’re gone
They’ve taken you away
I’ll never kiss your lips again
They buried you to day
