For those who haven't seen the movie, Clarence was the angel who saved George Bailey.
My shaking hand ~ Inside my pants pocket
Warmed it be ~ When I pulled out my locket
Zuzu's baby picture ~ My dear treasured keep
Always with me ~ By my bed when I sleep
Her face so meek ~ So small and so squib
As she sleeps silent ~ Alone in her crib
I thought that I lost her ~ When she fell ill
Pneumonia's burden ~ A baby's...sure fire kill
Her temperature high ~ One hundred five
She should have passed ~ Somehow, she's alive
An haloed angel ~ Came to me that night
He answered my prayers ~ Gave Zuzu...new light
Ever since then, I've prayed ~ Along with my wife
Clarence, thank you ~ It's a wonderful life
