Angel

I can find you where the waters edge is clear

Where the sun is warm

As it guides me near

I can find you where the soft rain falls

Where the snow folds down

Where I stand and call

I think I can feel you with every laugh aloud

And sense that you are close

With every touch and sound

I think I can feel you where there is blue and gold

Where strangers share thoughts

With every story told

Please take my love and hold it tight

When you're around my day

And through the blackest night

Angel I know how much you care

For your gentle touch and whisper

Tells me you are always near

I think I can hear you inside my aching heart

With my memories of old

Where the pain stops and starts

For every song that touched my lips

For every single loving kiss

For an empty soul awake in bed

For every prayer that's quietly said

Please take my love and hold it tight

When you're around my day

And through the blackest night

Angel I know how much you care

For your gentle touch and whisper

Tells me you are always near

To all the lonely souls that wish

To the happy faces I will always miss

To all those that tried hard to listen

To all who beg to be forgiven

Angel I know how much you care

For your gentle touch and whisper

Tells me you are always near

My angel is always near
