Angels

There's an angel at my side tonight
He quietly listens as I sleep
Me not knowing that he's there
Into a imaginative dream I slide deep.

He was lost at a tender age,
a friend to me but a stranger to you,
not knowing where to go now
Watching over me is his job to do.

How can I explain my feelings here
When I know I won't see him again
And yet I know he's there
How can I?? I can't.

He holds my hand and kisses it lightly
But to me it feels like the breeze blowing
I wonder if he feels as lonely as me, just ever so slightly
I wonder if he feels the cold, the feel of not knowing.

So now he follows me everywhere
Rain or shine, night or day,
these feelings I can't explain to you here,
the ones that won't go away.

Angels are extraordinary people lost
the ones you love and the ones you don't know.
Taken away at some unruly cost
But whatever happens in life remember, they're here to watch you grow
