I once saw an angel fluttering in the breeze
She looked so majestic, so wild and free
I crept upon her ever so slowly
She looked so pure, she looked so holy
But the closer I got the more I could tell
She was  depressed,  she wasn't quite well
She flew too high, got too close to the sun
She burned her wings, she came undone
She lost her bearings and fell to the earth
It was such a pity, I could tell she was hurt
I took her in and nursed her to health
I gave her my love, I gave her my wealth
I loved her so dearly, I held her so tight
Only to discover she had regained her flight
My days are lonely, I feel so alone
Oh how I wish my angel would come home
She haunts my dreams , I'm filled with confusion
Now my life is just an illusion
A lesson to learn, a word to the wise
When your angel departs,  your spirit dies.
