Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Earth angel, earth angel
Will you be mine
My darling dear
Love me all the time
I'm just a fool
(just a fool)
A fool in love, with you
Earth angel, earth angel
The one I adore
Lovely for ever and ever more
(I'm just a fool)
I'm just a fool
(oh what a fool)
A fool in love with you
Yes in love with you

I fell for you
And I knew
The vision of my love's loveliness
I hope and I pray
That some day
I'll be the vision
(vision)
The vision of your happiness

Angel my darling
Last night I fell in love with a little piece of heaven on Earth
It was you
The way you walk, the way you talk
The way you bat your eye lids as I pull up in my open-top Chevy
I don't know what I'd do without you
Earth Angel I will never let you go

Angel of angels
Earth angel oh

Earth angel, earth angel
Will you be mine
My darling dear
Love me all the time
(I'm just a fool)
I'm just a fool
(Oh what a fool)
A fool in love with you

Oh my love
I'm just a fool
(Just a fool)
A fool in love
With




You
Fool in love with you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marty McFly/The Starlighters' "Earth Angel" describe a person who is deeply in love with someone, who they refer to as their "darling dear" and the "one I adore." The singer constantly refers to themselves as a "fool in love" and admits to being completely smitten with this person. They hope and pray to be the "vision of your happiness" and express a desire to be loved "forever and ever more." The use of "earth angel" as an endearing term throughout the song suggests that the person being addressed is seen as an ideal, heavenly figure.


The repetition of "I'm just a fool in love with you" serves as a reminder of the singer's vulnerability and lack of control in the relationship. Despite this, they express a deeply romantic and sincere desire to be with this person. The final verse reinforces the singer's devotion and willingness to do anything for their loved one, cementing their status as a true "fool" in love.

I love how without the time travel this movie is about a guy being an absolute homie and helps a guy get his crush

@SuperPlacido1

What homie mean?

@TheRealMichaelH

@@SuperPlacido1 It's a shortened version of "homeboy" (or "hombre" depending on whom you ask), which in turn is slang for "friend".

@belkYT
