i saw a band of angels in my dream one night
each one had a halo and a gown of white
they had great big wings and sat up on a cloud
sat there playing harps sat there in a crowd.

everything was peaceful it took my breath away
i sat there and listened as they began to play
such a lovely dream it brought peace to me
i wont forget my dream or the angels i could see.

I’m waiting for the days that I’m smiling again
The days when I feel like I’m living again
With my soul repaired,
Not torn, but free,
I’m waiting for the days I can feel like I’m Me.

I’m waiting for a life that feels like mine,
Not two different lives that have been combined,
No more two-faced, no more lies,
A life where I finally mean the words:
“I’m fine”

As the night wears on
As the mind wanders
Ponders what is to come
A heart yearns, it longs
For words of comfort
Even if they are uncertain
The fact they could be spoken
Brought to life, to weary ears
Would put one at ease
