A different smile upon her face
|
He's proud to be a part of it all
|
A welcome from the human race
|
A world so big and one that's so small
|
You see they've come so very far
|
But can't believe that's
|
The way it was planned
|
Just can't understand
|
That only angels have wings
|
With all the love they could give
|
Is this a fit place to live
|
Where only angels have wings
|
|
Through school days growing very fast
|
Today a boy, tomorrow a man
|
His roots set deeply in the past
|
It's hard but keep your head if you can
|
You see he's come so very far
|
But can't believe that's
|
The way it was planned
|
Just can't understand
|
That only angels have wings
|
Ambition so low with nowhere to go
|
As only angels have wings
|
|
Then suddenly an element of chance
|
Night falls on his town
|
The colours blend and dance
|
He's breaking in, no time to go back
|
There must be some way out
|
Making life easy - hear him shout it out
|
|
His father can't believe his ears
|
His mother stands with tears in her eyes
|
No child of theirs could be so wrong
|
Deep down inside a part of them dies
|
You see they tried so very hard
|
But just can't see that's
|
The way it was planned
|
Just can't understand
|
That only angels have wings
|
A part of our age, an action in rage
|
And only angels have wings
|
|
So far away, a time for second thought
|
Things seem much clearer now
|
The price for being caught
|
He longs for home and wants to go back
|
To how it was before
|
An ordinary person, happy to be born
|
