I believe in Angels
I wish it wasnt true,
We didnt want an Angel
We only wanted you,
♥.•** •.♥.•** •.♥.♥ ♥
You've left behind our broken hearts.
Our thoughts and photos too.
We didnt want a memory
We only wanted you .
♥.•** •.♥.•** •.♥.♥ ♥
Angels sent to guide us
And lead us on our way
When the sun is shining
To us its all too grey
♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥
My heart just goes on beating
Every beat tears me apart
Wishing i could stop the clock
And have a brand new start
♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥
I know i wont get over
The pain when you left me
The pain thats deep inside me
I just cant set it free
♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥.*.♥
One day when i see you
Through teardrops in my eyes
Ill love you and ill hold you
And there will be no more good-bye's

I felt the soft feather touch
As I lay sleeping in my bed
Softly brush across my face
And linger on my head.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ ☆
I thought I might be dreaming
An Angel in my view
More beautiful than words can say
I thought, what should I do?
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ ☆
I laid there in deep silence
My eyes so big and wide
The smile was oh so glorious
As she sat down by my side.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ ☆
I did not come to hurt you
I came from up above
To watch you and protect you
And cover you with love.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ ☆
She wrapped her wings around me
A vigilance she would keep
She held me in her sweet embrace
Until I fell asleep.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ ☆
I know I wasn't dreaming
It is clear to me you see
The Angel in my vision
Was God watching over me.

♥ In the quiet of the evening ♥
♥ I sit and think of you, ♥
♥ I open up my memory book, ♥
♥ Of the things we used to do, ♥
♥ And as I turn the pages, ♥
♥ My eyes are filled with tears, ♥
♥ For, although I have my memories, ♥
♥ I can't hold back the years ♥

Today while I was lonely
and felt myself near tears
I thought I heard a gentle voice
whisper in my ears
❤
The words were ones of comfort
but what, I do not know
❤
They left me feeling better
and my spirits higher though
❤
So as I walked along
on this suddenly bright day
I knew my heart had lightened
'cause an Angel smiled today
❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤~❤
We miss you more than anything........................
every second of every day...........................
my heart completly shattered....................
the day you went away..........................
I wish that you'd tell me your okay.........................
thats all i want to hear......................................
i want to have you near me.........................
i want to feel you near........................
I just want to know that your happy............................
and that life,it doe's go on......................................
i'l never stop worring about you.......................
cos thats my gob as your daughter................
If you can find away to tell me....................................
that all you have to do......................................
then i could cope a little easier........................
instead of always wondering about you......
Just a few little signs..................................
thats all i need to see..........................
things that only we'd know.............
it would mean so much to me.......
I'll leave you now to think it over......................
and then hopefully one day......................
you'll send me all thoes little signs..........
and then i'll know your okay...............
xx xx xx xx x xx xx xx xx xx xx
A last good bye
A last goodbye
a kiss to the wind
no one knows
the pain I am in ~~
I ache to hold you
to kiss your face
and now you are gone
without a trace ~~
But memories I hold
deep in my heart
my love remains strong
we shall never be apart ~~
Fly with the angels
and feel no more pain
I will love you each moment
till we meet once again ~~
