Lyrics

ANGEL IN THE SKIES COPYRIGHT LOUISE STEPHENS
AUGUST 2003


VERSE:

YOU LOVED YOUR FAMILY ABOVE ALL
NOT AFRAID TO TAKE A FALL
AND PICK YOURSELF UP ? STAND UP TALL
YOU WORE YOUR HEART OUT ON YOUR SLEEVE
PROTECTING ALL OF THOSE IN NEED
BUT NEVER FOLLOWING YOUR DREAM


CHORUS:

AS THE LIGHT LEAVES FROM YOUR FACE
I KNOW YOU?RE HEADED FOR A BETTER PLACE
A PLACE WITHOUT PAIN OR LIES AND?
ALTHOUGH WE ARE LEFT BEHIND
WE KNOW THAT YOU WILL HAVE SOME PEACE OF MIND
AND WE?LL HAVE AN ANGEL IN THE SKIES


VERSE:

THREE YOUNG BOYS HOLD BACK THEIR TEARS
YOU WERE THE HEART OF THEIR SHORT YEARS
AND THEY TRY HARD TO HIDE THEIR FEARS
CAUSE DADDY?S NEVER COMING HOME
BUT THEY KNOW THEY ARE NOT ALONE
CAUSE YOU?LL BE WATCHING WHILE THEY ROAM


BRIDGE:

DON?T YOU WORRY?WE?LL ALL BE FINE
WE?LL HOLD ONTO OUR MEMORIES,
OF YOU IN OUR HEARTS AND MIND



VERSE:

WHAT IT MUST HAVE FELT LIKE TO BE TOLD
THAT YOU?D NEVER BE GROWING OLD
THAT YOUR LIFE?S ABOUT TO FOLD
WHILE YOU SUFFERED WITHOUT GAIN
YOU DIDN?T FOCUS ON THE PAIN
NOT ONCE DID YOU COMPLAIN


THE STRENGTH WE NEVER NEW YOU HAD
CARRIED YOU THROUGH THE GOOD AND BAD
YET WE?RE STILL FEELING SO SAD
YOU WERE BRAVE UNTIL THE END
WHEN AN ANGEL GOD DID SEND
TO TAKE YOU SOMEWHERE YOU COULD MEND


CHORUS
