My Angel

On my path I met an angel, so beautiful, so kind and true. His wings wrapped gently all around me, held me close and pulled me through. He forgave me all the wrong I'd done, filled my heart with joy and peace. Poured in hope and consolation – but the day was gone too swift. Into shadow, darkness fell, the angel faded like dust from the ground. I was left alone that night – without your warmth, without your light. My angel, come back to me, stay beside me, let me live. Without you close to me I'm so afraid, I can't go on alone. My angel, hear my cry, don't leave me here in the dark. Your wings are where I call home – without you I am lost. I remember the warmth of your arms, I remember the calm in your eyes. How could you leave without a word, how could I let you go so fast? Into shadow, darkness fell, the angel faded like dust from the ground. I was left alone that night – without your warmth, without your light. My angel, come back to me, stay beside me, let me live. Without you close to me I'm so afraid, I can't go on alone. My angel, hear my cry, don't leave me here in the dark. Your wings are where I call home – without you I am lost. Maybe you'll come back still, maybe this isn't the end. Maybe your wings will hold me one more time again. Stay with me just a moment – just one moment more. Without you this world is too quiet, too cold. My angel, come back to me, stay beside me, let me live. Without you close to me I'm so afraid – I don't want to be alone. My angel, can you hear me? Somewhere in this darkness… Your wings are where I call home – come back, please, come back. …let me remain…
