This was the best song to record. After we laid down the first take everyone in the band ran into the control room to take a listen. It was great. Leaving Nashville we had the instrumental version jammed into the CD player. We were all crushed.

Story behind the song
This is just a song about missing my kids when I had to travel. I would hang out in some pretty exotic places, but I always thought about my two kids. I thought it was so ironic that paradise all around me and it was nothing without them. Well actually it wasn't that bad. It's all a matter of perspective.
Lyrics
Little Angel
Verse 1
Little angel of the sun
Grant me wings that I might fly
There must be somewhere, somehow, sometime,
a place for me below the sky
Chorus
I often wonder if I could fly away
Would I tire from what I?d see
A touch away from paradise
The world would always welcome me
Verse 2
Little angel of the sun
Let me rest beneath the palm
With soft brown hands and turquoise eyes
The ocean sings its island psalm
Verse 3
Dancing palm under the sun
I bid farewell for I must go
My lover shared with me God?s bounty
And I miss their hands within my own
? Duncan Walters
