ANGEL WINGS
YOU SAID YOU WOULD NEVER TRY
TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND FLY
AND WITH A TEAR IN YOUR EYE
SOFTLY LETTING OUT A SIGH
YOU SAID GOODBYE
ANGELS DON'T FALL FROM HEAVEN
SOME DECIDE TO JUST JUMP
EVEN WITH A BROKEN ANGELS WING
TO EARTH THEY QUICKLY RUSH
THEY BEAR THE BURDENS OF SORROW
THEY FEEL THE PAIN OF MAN
THEY LONG FOR ANOTHER TOMORROW
THEY TRY TO UNDERSTAND
THAT WHEN THEY JUMPED FROM HEAVEN
TO BE LIKE YOU AND ME
CREATURES WITH A SHINING SOUL
AND FREE WILL TO BE INNOCENT AND FREE
TO TRY AND CAPTURE THE GIFT
GOD GAVE TO HIS CHILDREN ON EARTH
THE GIFT OF A SOUL FILLED WITH LIGHT
FROM THE TIME OF EACH OUR BIRTHS
SO WHEN AN ANGEL JUMPS FROM HEAVEN
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND
HOW GLORIOUS WE APPEAR IN THEIR EYES
JUST THIS SIMPLE, MORTAL , MAN.
SO WHEN AN ANGEL JUMPS FROM HEAVEN
AND THEY HAD TO SAY GOODBYE
BEFORE THEY CHOSE NOT TO SPREAD THEIR WINGS
THEIR WILL CHOSE NOT TO FLY
YOU SAID YOU WOULD NEVER TRY
TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND FLY
AND WITH A TEAR IN YOUR EYE
SOFTLY LETTING OUT A SIGH
YOU SAID GOODBYE
