[Verse 1]
Lost too early, held my own
Little hands, and a broken home
Tried to love with a guarded heart
Every new man tore me apart
Took my tears like they were rain
Left me standing in the pain
But I kept my babies near
Kept on breathing through the fear
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you came with steady eyes
No big words, no hard disguise
You saw my scars, you saw my name
And you never made me feel ashamed
[Chorus]
You love my kids, you love me
Like I was made to be
You hold this heart so gently
You love my kids, you love me
(you love my kids, you love me)
Angel in my house
Peace walking around
Angel in my house
You turned my whole life around
(angel in my house)
[Verse 2]
Now the porch light feels like home
Little shoes lined up in a row
You laugh when they climb your knee
Like they’ve always been part of me
You don’t flinch at bedtime noise
You don’t fear a mother’s joys
You bring a calm I never knew
And every day feels brand new
[Pre-Chorus]
After all the hurt I knew
You stayed kind, you stayed true
You took the pieces I held tight
And made a shelter out of light
[Chorus]
You love my kids, you love me
Like I was made to be
You hold this heart so gently
You love my kids, you love me
(you love my kids, you love me)
Angel in my house
Peace walking around
Angel in my house
You turned my whole life around
(angel in my house)
[Bridge]
I thought love came to leave
Thought it only came to bleed
But your arms taught mine to trust
Now my children laugh with us
[Chorus]
You love my kids, you love me
Like I was made to be
You hold this heart so gently
You love my kids, you love me
(you love my kids, you love me)
Angel in my house
Peace walking around
Angel in my house
You turned my whole life around
(angel in my house)
