I wrote this song about my older niece when she was small. It's been an incessant source of embarrassment to her, especially as she's all grown up now and beautiful and a student at the University of Sydney

She's An Angel


Chorus
She's an angel, she's a devil,
So endearing, so demanding.
She is weak and she is strong
So naive, so understanding.


She's a child in a world
Full of wonder and of bliss
From the darkness to the light
She will show you where it is
Where it is


Chorus


There are times when her demands
They will drive you to despair
Then once again she'll melt you with
The winning look that she she will wear
She will wear


Middle 8
Innocence and mischief comes
And beats upon those twin bass drums
Discordant notes and then she strums
Chords so haunting and true


Guitar solo


Chorus


Complications may arise
She will simply be direct
And the charm within her eyes
Feeds the instinct to protect
To protect


Middle 8 and Chorus (three times)
