Story Behind The Song

I saw a young lady behind a counter at a vet. clinic and her name tag said "Angela." She had what I felt was "sad" eyes. I went home and wrote a song accordingly. I got the inspiration musically from the Eagles and Guns N Roses.

Song Description

It's about a man losing the love of his life and he still speaks to her every night, wishing to be united with her once again. And before he completely loses himself in his agony, he realizes it's time for him to move on or he never will.

Lyrics

ANGELA, YOU TOOK MY HEART
AND LEFT ME WITH AN EMPTINESS;
AND I FEEL THE PAIN
THAT WE ALL CALL LONLINESS,

BUT WHATEVER I MAY SAY
YOU'RE STILL SO FAR AWAY.
AND NO MATTER WHAT I FEEL,
I CAN TELL MY LOVE IS REAL.

ANGELA, YOU FELT SO SOFT,
AND YOUR VOICE STILL CALLS TO ME.
WHISPER (ANGELA) YOUR THOUGHTS,
AND SHOW ME WHAT YOU SEE!

BUT WHAT CAN I DO
IF I CANNOT BE WITH YOU?
AND I PRAY EVERYDAY,
AND HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON.

CAN YOU HEAR MY WORDS THAT I SPEAK FROM MY HEART?
CAN YOU FEEL ALL THAT I KNOW?
WILL WE BE AS ONE FOREVER IN TIME?
I CAN'T BEAR TO LET YOU GO! OH!
(SOLO)
ANGELA, DEAR ANGELA,
YOU'RE MY ANGEL IN MY DREAMS.
I SLEEP WITH YOU EVERY NIGHT,
YET I'M LONELY AS CAN BE.

AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY
'CAUSE YOU'VE GONE SO FAR AWAY.
AND THE TEARS I'VE SHED FOR YOU
HAVE GONE ON SO LONG.

CAN YOU EASE THE PAIN THAT I KEEP BURIED INSIDE?
THERE IS NOTHING TO LIVE FOR.
ALL THAT I FEEL SEEMS TO HAVE DIED.
IT IS TIME TO LET YOU GO!
