Story behind the song
Tami and I are celebrating 20 years of marriage at this writing (2007). I wrote this lyric for her and asked Ken to put it to music for me. I was going to put my own vocal on it but his performance is just too good to keep to myself. It is used here with his permission. Check out more of his music at the iTunes store and at his site (kenmedema.com).
Lyrics
I'VE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH AN ANGEL
for Tami
by Jeff Leslie 1/24/07
Someone asked if I believe in angels
With wings and rings of gold around their hair
Are they living with the Father in the heavens
Where light and love and laughter fill the air?
Not only do I think they're living, lighting up the stars
I believe they're here, for one is capturing my heart
I've fallen in love with an angel
I'm sure she was sent from the Father to me
I've fallen in love with an angel
She must be a hint of what heaven will be
I've heard from age to age there is a saying
On earth you may meet angels in disguise.
For a long and lonely lifetime I've been waiting
Now it's true for here's one right before my eyes
How else can you explain the kind of love to me she brings
I'll help her with her coat, and one day find she's hiding wings
I've fallen in love with an angel
I'm sure she was sent from the Father to me
I've fallen in love with an angel
She must be a hint of what heaven will be
So believe me when I tell you
Life is more than meets the eye
For I've found with my sweet angel
Just a glimpse of Paradise
I've fallen in love with an angel
I'm sure she was sent from the Father to me
I've fallen in love with an angel
She must be a hint of what heaven will be
