She Gave Her Angels...
(*Excerpt from Wikipedia)
*"With the pregnancy of
Prince's then-wife
Mayte Garcia,
Prince was inspired to make and announce a children's music album called
Happy Tears, credited to
Prince and Mayte. The album was supposed to have been released on
November/1996. The album was going to include a book of children's stories with it. To promote the album,
Prince guest-starred on the show
Muppets Tonight, and performed the only song confirmed that would have been included on the album, "
She Gave Her Angels", which remained unreleased until inclusion on the "
Crystal Ball" set. The album was likely cancelled due to
Prince's son Gregory's passing one week after birth."
(Rest in Peace, Little One...) SeeNote: The lyrics are (subjectively) both a tribute and premonition in the star crossed moments that shine from the beauty of humanity only captured in the essence of: Father, Mother and Child:
"And now I'd like 2 turn your heart
2 a tale of sheer delight
A song of adulation, love and fear
No one loved him better
No one better sacrificed
She gave her angels that summer night
Fate as she designed it
Took her from her man
Destiny and love don't always go hand in hand
As the world lay waiting
Like an embryo in a womb
She gave her angels that night in June
She gave her angels 2 her man
Because her man had none
2 watch over him 'til he returned...
Her man, her lover, her son, her father
4 all these things he meant 2 her
She felt it right
She gave her angels that summer night"
