My Angel, My Muse

[InNeedOfAnAngel]

My Angel, My Muse

Deep in the night when you lie in your bed

wondering at shadows up over your head

and you pull those soft white sheets to your eyes

do you whisper to God and ask Him why?

Why is she gone and why did she go?

You want to know and you want Him to show

you a reason. So pray as fast as you can.

But unanswered prayers are a part of the plan.

But when you ask why and your eyes start to cry

and you feel so sad that you think you might die,

listen, because He will tell you, and angels' wings

hug and hold you snug as they sing a song so sweet

like sirens of lore as you slip into dreams of what was before.

And then you will see her far away in her bed

where she has the covers pulled up over her head

and she's asking God why as her eyes fill with tears

and she shakes with the fears that nobody hears her

when she asks why and her eyes start to cry

and she feels so lonely she thinks she might die,

she listens. And He tells her. And angels' wings

hug and hold her snug as they sing a song so sweet

like sirens of lore as she slips into dreams of what was before.

And she sees the little girl far away in her bed

with the covers pulled up around her head

and she smiles through the pain

when He answers 'you will be together again.'
