Angel
pinkpantheress Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Johnny, my baby's hands, they grip my fingers when they're cold
He could be the one to make me never freeze again, because
No one is as romantic as him, I want you to know
Everyone tells me life was hard, but it's a piece of cake
Even if Johnny hasn't answered in a couple days (let's go)
You won't check your phone, so you can't tell me you're okay, because
Johnny, my baby, did it always have to end this way?
'Cause one day
One day, my baby just went away
My angel
You're what haunts me now that you're away
Everyone tells me life was hard, but it's a piece of cake
Even if Johnny hasn't answered in a couple days
You won't check your phone so you can't tell me you're okay, because
Johnny, my baby, did it always have to end this way?
'Cause one day
One day, my baby just went away
My angel
You're what haunts me now that you're away
(My angel)
(You're what haunts me now that you're away)

This song literally sounds like a song they would have in a 2010’s Barbie movie soundtrack. It’s so nostalgic and sounds perfect for a Barbie movie. This was a great choice.
Edit: please nobody argue with me about the year, I meant AROUND the early 2000s-2010s timeframe. At around late 2000s (2006-2010) is when they started incorporating this kinda sound in Barbie movies which is why I said that.
