Story behind the song
On the evening before my daughter, Cassidy, was born, I took my sampler and a microphone up to the hospital and recorded about 60 seconds of her heartbeat. A few months after she was born, I took the heartbeat track and built the song's tempo around it. This song also has a two-fold meaning. I wrote it for Cassidy, but when listening to it, I also hear God's voice, singing me to sleep with words of comfort. We mean more than anything to him.
Lyrics
Little angel lay down your head Close your eyes and go to sleep There's no need for you to be afraid You are safe in your Daddy's arms You mean more than anything to me And I love you so So little angel don't be afraid You are safe in my heart Little angel I am here To watch you as you learn and grow Little angel my love for you Is more than you'll ever know You mean more than anything to me And I love you so So little angel don't be afraid You are safe in my heart Little angel you'll always be Safe in my heart Copyright (C) 2001 Clockwork Music BMI
