Loss of a Father
Face of an angel with tears in her eyes,
Face of an angel as she says goodbye.
To the one she calls Daddy, who she thought would never die.
She remembers the soft touch of his rugged hands,
And the strength in his arms, and the love of the man.

Face of an angel with tears in her eyes,
Face of an angel, I hold her as she cries.
She remembers him in gone by years,
When he chased the trolls from under her bed,
And kept them away with stories he read.

Face of an angel with tears in her eyes,
Face of an angel who holds my hand so tight.
She knows the pain he fought for so long,
She knows that now his pain is gone.

Face of an angel with tears in her eyes,
Face of an angel, who I have loved for so long,
You know in your heart he’s not really gone.
For his heart, his soul, and all he was,
Have become a part of those he loves.

Face of an angel with tears in her eyes
Face of an angel as she says goodbye.
