ANGEL CAME THROUGH, THE
(Ernesto Lecuona (m) Al Dubin (l) )
as recorded by The Glenn Miller Orchestra
(vocal - Ray Eberle)
May 28th 1941 Hollywood
You wanted two little stars from the skies;
There they are in your eyes,
For the angels came through.
You wanted sunbeams to wear in your hair;
Sure enough they are there,
For the angels came through.
Then you wanted a love song;
Angels composed it,
Then they enclosed it,
Deep in this red rose I give you.
Then you wanted someone whose love wouldn't die;
Funny thing, so did I,
For the angels came through!
