Guardian Angel
Guardian Angel: Navigating Life's Twists with Heavenly Guidance
Lyrics
Some folks live their life not knowing
Some individuals go through life without understanding their past or future.
Where they've been or where they're going
Uncertainty about where they have been or where they are headed.
I'm not one but I know some
The singer acknowledges that while she is not one of those people, she knows some who are.
I've been selfish with affection
Confession of being self-centered with affection.
I threw it all in one direction
She invested all her love in one direction without considering consequences.
To turn around and then I found
Realization that after turning around, she discovered she had let down those she loved.
The ones I loved I'd let 'em down
Expressing regret for disappointing loved ones.
There must be a guardian angel
Reflection on the existence of a guardian angel.
I lived my life like no tomorrow
Lived life without concern for the future.
A lot of laughs and such sweet sorrow
Life included both joyful moments and sad farewells.
But most the time I took for granted
Admission of taking time for granted.
And heaven knows somebody planned it
Belief that someone, perhaps fate, orchestrated events.
There must be someone watching over me
Affirmation of the presence of a guiding force looking out for her.
A guardian angel guiding me
Reiteration of the concept of a guardian angel providing guidance.
A guardian angel just for me
Emphasis on the idea that this guardian angel is specifically for her.
About the company I'm keeping
Reflecting on the quality of relationships she maintains.
I slipped away while they were sleeping
Slipping away unnoticed while others are asleep.
I kissed the boys and made them cry
Recollection of causing emotional pain to others by not saying goodbye.
Oh I never stopped to say good-bye
Regret for not expressing farewells.
Some folks live their life not knowing
Repetition of the theme of individuals unaware of their life's course.
Where they've been or where they're going
Reiteration of the theme of uncertainty about past and future.
I've been up to living it down
Acknowledgment of mistakes and attempts to overcome them.
And heaven knows I know how now
Recognition that she now understands the consequences of her actions.
There must be someone watching over me
Reaffirmation of the belief in a guiding presence watching over her.
A guardian angel guiding me
Reiteration of the idea of a guardian angel providing guidance.
A guardian angel just for me
Emphasis on the personalized nature of the guardian angel's protection.
A guardian angel watching me
Further affirmation of a guardian angel's watchful presence.
A guardian angel just for me
Repetition, emphasizing the personalized nature of the guardian angel's role.
A guardian angel...
Final acknowledgment and affirmation of the guardian angel's protection.
