When You Were An Angel

Your eyes

they outshined

the night sky

And you were there

Calling my name

Your hands were cold

When you ran them through my hair

And you

Were so fragile

Told me not to break your heart

When you were an angel

You know I loved you

From the start

Your skin

Floating down my mind

Like a wave caught beneath a man

Careful creature

You’re my wild-hearted

soul that came and ran

And you

Were so afraid of

Feeling like you’ll never live the days

When you were an angel

A light was shining

On your face

Sometimes I wonder

If you wonder about me too

I know I do, oh do you
