    GUARDIAN ANGEL
    (words & music by Natalie Merchant)
    Guardian Angel, I’ve heard you laugh,
    kicking stones, breaking branches in your path.
    Thought I felt your hand,
    saw your shadow pass.
    Guardian Angel, I’m begging you,
    please forgive these things I do,
    I never meant to harm;
    I know you see me through.
    You take my breath away,
    take my breath away.
    You take my breath away.
    Guardian Angel, I'm at your feet.
    Where's the love you promised me?
    Where’s your tender heart full of sympathy?
    Guardian Angel, I don’t believe
    you could ever take from me
    all the love had ever belonged to me.
    You’d take my breath away,
    take my breath away.
    Take my breath away.
    Guardian Angel, I’ll track you down
    there’s no place on earth you can’t be found.
    Woe be unto the soul that harbors you.
    I’ll take your breath away,
    take your breath away.
    I’ll take your breath away

    I grew up on you in the early 1990s.
    My mom was/is in love with your music still.
    We turn to you for a true, pure reboot of authenticity in a profoundly inauthentic world. Or is it authentically inauthentic?
    Either way, this beautiful song reminds me of my mom tugging on my arm reminding we have to go to school as I sat at the kitchen table humming to “San Andreas fault moved his fingers through the ground…”
    Oh Natalie, your beautiful voice echoes through all our hearts.
    *Thank you. Keep going. There is still a selection of us who cherish you tremendously.*
    P.S.
    I love your silver hair. You are a true goddess.

      Now
      on the eve of Mothers day
      May we be a source of love
      Support
      Protection
      Nurturing
      Encouragement
      To each other.
      Our mothers may or may not be alive
      May or may not have been good at "mothering"
      But every single human exists because of a mother.
      🙏🫂

    I remember an interview where Natalie said she had been writing this song on and off for a while and found it difficult to finish. It was inspired by a friend of hers who had a lot of bereavement and bad news in a really short space of time.

    Even if every other song on Keep Your Courage was a dud (which of course is not the case), Guardian Angel is exceptional and one of the most fascinating songs Natalie has ever written. This tune came into my life at the right time; I am so grateful. For anyone who has dealt with rejection and abandonment in any form, this song is a lightning rod and a standout track on the new album. Love to hear Natalie's upper singing register too.

      She often does a double tracked vocal, which you kind of sense without quite noticing. There was lots of it on the last album.
