Neil Diamond Angel Above My Head [Previously Unissued] lyrics

If you're gonna be true to me
First, you got to be true to yourself, oh yeah
It don't matter 'bout nobody else, oh no
If it's there in your mind

It's a lesson I've just come to learn
Something that I've only just begun to learn, oh yeah
For the very first time
For the very first time

Angel above my head
Calling my name in different places
Angel above my head
Saying it's alright to show your face to the world

Everything seems new to me
Such a very recent turn of events
And the truth just doesn't make any sense, oh no
For the very first time

Yeah, if we had another year or two
I would spend it being near to you, oh yeah

Like the very first time
Like the very first time

Angel above my head
Calling my name in different places
Angel above my head
Saying it's alright to show your face now

Angel above my head
Tapping me gently on my shoulder
That angel above my head
Saying it's time to be growing older
My friend

If you wanna be true to me
First you've got to be true to yourself, oh yeah
It don't matter 'bout nobody else, oh no
Keep me there in your mind
I'll be there by your side
