Jenny was the girl
That I once called my own
Then came the day
My Jenny left me all alone
She died neath the wheels
Of a midnight train
Trying to find
The high school ring
And that's when I first heard the sound
Of an angel's wings
Oh, how my poor heart cried
The day they took her away
And then something deep inside me
Seemed to say
"Goodbye my love, remember me
I'll wait for you in eternity"
And again I heard the sound
Of an angel's wings
I slowly walked back to my home
Down by the sea
And there on the shelf
Was a picture of my Jenny and me
And I fell to my knees
As the teardrops streamed
And I cried, "Oh, Lord
Let it all be a dream"
But again I heard the sound
Of an angel's wings
I ran down to the sea
So deep and wide
I just had to be
By my darling Jenny's side
And I cried, "Oh, Jenny
Please wait for me"
Then jumped into
The angry sea
And again I heard the sound
Of an angel's wings
And the last thing I heard was the sound
Of my angel's wings
