Lyrics

A pretty little girl in a dirty dress
Freckles on her face and her hair?s a mess
Playing hopscotch, out behind that old wood shed
Her Mom and Dad are passed out again
She feels the rage but holds it in
No one knows her pain
Only her secret friends

(Chorus)
So she talks to the angel and the dove
They tell her of a place that's filled with love
A place where tears are not allowed
Because there?s never anything to cry about
She wants to fly away right now
With the angel and the dove

She's been running scared all her life
Make-up over bruises she can't hide
And there's no one she can tell her problem to
She cries before the day begins
Hates to spend it there with him
Oh what would she do
Without her secret friends

(Repeat Chorus)

(Instrumental Break)

(Bridge)
He stares but can?t remember what he?s done
As he sees her lying crumpled on the floor
He knows this time his bottle's won
She?s someplace where he can?t hurt her anymore

Chorus:
And she talks to the angel and the dove
As they fly to a place that's filled with love
A place where tears are not allowed
Because there's never anything to cry about
All she feels now is love, with the angel and the dove
With the angel and the dove
Angel and the dove
