| "Heaven`s Loss; More Than An Angel" Where is heaven Is heaven where the angels are? Or is it where my angel is In your wake is paradise Gardens lost to heaven As each footstep brings Brings breath of life To a valley threatened with drought and drowning in death And I watch you Painting the colorless Borrowing the brilliance from Heaven As every smile is a sudden rainbow And a stolen ray from the sun`s shine I see you when birds grace you with song And the wild ones drop soft petals at your feet I observe you as you walk under the shade of my tree and sit down to watch me You sing to me Music lost to heaven and the cherabim And all this valley is filled with your angelic song And it is not my valley anymore But it is our world you have so carefully painted with the beauty behind your eye and the essence of heaven You sing for me stay To stay as long as I need And lose myself in our bit of heaven You hold my hand to your cheek Close your eyes I close mine Brilliance and beauty from up close is not something I deserve to see You kiss my forehead and I hear you tell me You have painted this world From the beauty you have found in my eyes And my angel loses himself in my eyes I cannot help being drawn to him As I called out to him one day His soul calls to me now to stay And I forget my world My barren valley I settle here in ours I held him then He comforted me We spoke no words but we soaked eachother in Shared a total understanding Then my angel slept In my arms My angel was finally able to rest And I listened to the soft hum of his breath His sleep lulled me to sleep Inviting me to dreamlands to find him and run wild and free And for the first time in life The world watched us sleep |
