Angel heart
Once I saw a beautiful woman
open her wings and fly
Then I saw her blackened heart
Shrivel up and die.
Eyes lost in the wilderness
I could not bring her back
Everyday she whipped herself
To gain a life of lack.
And all she ever needed
To gently pull her through
Were arms coiled close around her
And those words - I Love You
As she rose, I watched her
Dissapear into a light
Bent double, I bore her pain
Into my own dark night.
For we who live can barely say
We've touched anothers heart
And Angels cannot bear the pain
We suffer when we part.
