Story behind the song
I wrote this song when I lived on Maui. Where I was renting a room I was sitting on the back porch playing my guitar. I started with the tune and like it. The words basically came out. The 1st time I recorded it was in Maui. I then rerecorded it after I added a little to the song in 2002. This is a new and better recording of the song.
I recorded the acoustic guitar. I originally had written drums and base for the song but I never like the drums so Kevin King from Blind Dog Studios rewrote the drums and base part. The old base did not go good with the Organ that Troy Denning wrote for the song and Mike Lockett wrote the leads. I have to thank Kevin, Troy, and Mike because with their skills they brought this son alive. Thanks guys.
Kevin recorded the drums, base, my vocals, mixed mastered, produced the song.
Thanks everyone for listening and hope all is well.

Lyrics
WHEN ANGELS CRY
WORDS & MUSIC Copyright © 1993 by Dennis Ballinger
REMEMBER WHEN LIFE WENT BY SO FAST
YOU THOUGHT THAT THIS FUN WOULD ALWAYS LAST
WHAT HAPPENED TO CHANGE THE WAY YOU LIVE
LITTLE ANGEL YOU DID NOTHING
WHEN ANGELS CRY THE WORLD SHOULD CRY TOO
WE DON'T WANT TO SEE THE PAIN THEY'RE GOING THROUGH
WE'D LIKE TO HELP, HELP OUR EYES ARE CLOSED
ALL THE PAIN EFFECTS US SO
THE SCARES, THE HURT, THE UN-TRUSTING
THESE SMALL BODIES THEY FEEL EVERYTHING
THEY CAN'T FIND ANY WAY OUT
OUT OF A PLACE THAT IS THEIR HELL
WHEN ANGELS CRY WE ALL SHOULD HEAR
THE TOUCH OF LOVE IT JUST ISN'T THERE
WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM, IT WASN'T THEIR FAULT
BUT THE LITTLE ANGELS DON'T KNOW THAT PART
WHEN ANGELS CRY, WE ALL SHOULD SEE
SEE THE FULL TRUTH, SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
WHEN ANGELS CRY WE ALL SHOULD FEEL
THEIR HEARTS ARE BENT, HELP THEM HEAL
THE BROKEN BONES, COVERED SCARS
THE HIDDEN TRUTHS, THE OPEN LIES
THE ANGELS THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S RIGHT
IT'S THE ABUSE ALL THEIR LIVES
WHEN ANGELS CRY IT'S SO SAD
PARENTS HURTING THEM IS SO BAD
THEY MIGHT HAVE BEEN HURT THE SAME WAY
WHAT THEY DON'T LEARN IS ANGELS CAN'T PAY
WHEN ANGELS CRY THE WORLD SHOULD CRY TOO
WE DON'T WANT TO SEE THE PAIN THEY'RE GOING THROUGH
WE'D LIKE TO HELP, HELP OUR EYES ARE CLOSED
ALL THE PAIN EFFECTS US SO
WHEN ANGLES CRY, THEY CRY ALONE
THEY FACE THE HARSH WORLD ON THEIR OWN
FEELIN THAT THEY'VE DONE THINGS WRONG
NO FRIENDS TO TRUST, NO FRIENDLY SONG
OPEN YOUR HEARTS AND HELP THEM GROW
OPEN YOUR ARMS AND LET THEM GO
STOP HURTING THEM IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN
JUST PUT THIS PAIN TO IT'S END
