You know someone told me once
|
That angels don't exist
|
And that paradise was just a poor mans dream
|
Without hesitation
|
I can say he was mistaken
|
Cause I've wrapped my arms around celestial wings
|
But for reasons we don't know, some aren't meant to be here long,
|
And then one day the good lord calls them home
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Now I may never find peace or fulfill some destiny
|
I may be cursed just to walk this earth alone
|
And I never will erase the memory of her gentle face
|
But I can go to the other side with a smile
|
Cause I knew heaven for a while
|
|
The other day I took a drive
|
To that place up on the hill
|
I brought flowers and I laid them on the stone
|
And I sat there for some time
|
With this runnin' through my mind
|
How much we take for granted till it's gone
|
Then I got back in my car and slowly drove away
|
Knowing she was in a better place
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
The world turns and seasons change
|
And rivers keep on runnin' to the sea
|
Tears dry and hearts heal
|
And what is meant to be will always be
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
