Dance Of The Angels

If you knew that I could see through you,
Your colors would never show
Because the vision that's revealed to us,
Is not the person that we know.

Some lead with their heads,
Others hide behind their heart
And those that follow theirs,
Are the leaders of the "art"--

The Angels came before us,
Danced the lessons of today...
The audience that heard music,
Felt the movement say...
It's the Dance of the Angels
that keeps heaven and earth apart.
It's the Dance of the Angels...
That leaves messages of the heart.

Some will learn to listen,
Some will never hear
Some can touch a wing,
And some come very near.

You have to earn your right to fly,
Your obligation to the dance...
Sacrifice and honor,
A willingness to take a chance.

An angel never forfeits
Another mortal's love
It's a lesson that's imprinted on their souls
From up above

Be careful not to glance,
At a glittering starlight's pace...
Study all there is to see,
Within your lover's gentle face.

Because the Angels give flickering notice,
When the parting must begin.
Never ask them if tomorrow,
Will be yours to share again!

You can only redeem a promise,
While devoted to the earth...
And when you arrive in heaven,
You'll grasp the knowledge of its worth.

If you know you're not a dancer,
And your spirit cannot sway...
Surround yourself with those who lilt,
And try to learn today.

To join the Dance of Angels,
Wrap your arms around the skin...
Be your lover's velvet blanket,
And show your heart within.

Wipe away the tear,
That nourished the soul inside...
Kiss the lashes on the windows,
When all the joy has cried.

Sweep away the hair,
That hides the loving smile...
Rock gently side by side,
Make it forever and awhile.

This is how the Angels,
Begin to learn the dance...
It's the spirit of the flight,
Delay your quickening glance.

Look closely at your presence,
Question why it is you're here,
Give a purpose to your being,
And be grateful that you're near.

Nearer to discovery...
And all you've come to hold,
It's the Dance of the Angels,
Showing how we unfold!
The truth is easy to discard,
Ignore and walk away...
And to have Danced with an Angel,
Was the fate of yours today.
Some will learn to listen,
Some will never hear...
Some can touch a wing,
Some came very near!

It's the Dance of the Angels,
That keeps heaven and earth apart...
It's the Dance of the Angels,
That leaves messages of the heart!!
