Yes, I'm Your Angel
John Lennon · Lennon - Signature Box [2010]
I'll give you everything
In my magic power
So make a wish
and I'll let it come true for you
Tra, la, la, la
Yes, you're my fairy
You give me everything
I every wanted from life
Have I made a wish
And is that why I have you
Tra, la, la, la
We believe in pumpkins that
Turn into princesses
And frogs that turn into princes
We believe in moons that smile to us
When we hurry home before midnight strikes
Tra, la, la, la
Yes I'm so pretty
You're so dizzy
And we're so happy every day
Let's make a wish
And let it come true for us
I'm in your pocket
You're in my locket
And we're so lucky in every way
We make a wish
And let it come true for us
We believe in houses built in the sky
And love that lifts us high
We believe in sun that looks over our
Shoulders and brings our shadows together
Tra, la, la, la
Yes
Our hearts are one
Our bodies, too
And it's so good (um) everytime
We make a wish
And let it come true for you, too
Happy birthday, my love
I'm your angel
I'll give you everything
In my magic power
So make a wish
And I'll let it come true for you.
Yes, I'm Your Angel
Recorded in 1972, 'Yes, I'm Your Angel' stands as a poignant song in John Lennon's solo discography, reflecting the introspective and socially conscious themes prevalent during his post-Beatles era. The track, often associated with the 'Lennon' compilation series, captures Lennon's unique ability to blend personal vulnerability with broader commentary on human connection and spiritual longing. As part of his extensive body of work from the early 1970s, the song exemplifies the acoustic and melodic sensibilities that defined his solo output, distinguishing it from the rock-oriented sound of his earlier years with The Beatles. The recording serves as a testament to Lennon's continued exploration of lyrical depth and emotional resonance, contributing to his legacy as a significant figure in popular music history.
