She sat in her hospital bed
|
Drawing pictures of the sky
|
And through all of the pain she felt
|
She had never asked why
|
But when the doctor walked in
|
And said, it's time for your meds
|
With tears in her eyes
|
She looked at the doctor and said
|
|
How big are angel wings?
|
Are they small enough for me?
|
Do they make them little
|
In the size I might need?
|
They say where I'm going
|
I won't feel no more pain
|
So I really need to know
|
How big are angel wings?
|
|
I can't ask Mama
|
I know it'd make her sad
|
I don't like to see her cry
|
And it does the same thing to Dad
|
And at night when I sleep
|
I see heaven in my dreams
|
So please won't you answer
|
This question for me
|
|
How big are angel wings?
|
Are they small enough for me?
|
Do they make them little
|
In the size I might need?
|
They say where I'm going
|
I won't feel no more pain
|
So I really need to know
|
How big are angel wings?
|
|
And they say where I'm going
|
I won't feel no more pain
|
So I really need to know now
|
How big are angel wings?
|
