Throw me a rope or something, will ya?

I stand here thinking of the days
When I never worried about not seeing you

I lie awake
Feeling pain
Thinking of how badly I want to talk to you

They tell me you play cards with angels
And that you're always watching over me

But when I look up to heaven
I realize I'd much rather just be

An angel too
I want to feel the wind beneath my wings
I want to be close to you
Want to learn about so many more things
So take me up with you
And don't ever leave me again
Don't need you where I can't see you
I just want to be
An angel too

My path's been buried by boulders
I need you to show me the way

My heart's been run over by soldiers
Who believe that war is just play

I sometimes feel you hiding in the shadows
Come out to the light

I feel pain that nobody knows
Wish I could be one tonight


An angel too
I want to feel the wind beneath my wings
I want to be close to you
Want to learn about so many more things
So take me up with you
And don't ever leave me again
Don't need you where I can't see you
I just want to be
An angel too


Hold my hand, though you never did before
Heal my heart and love me more
I want to have the space to fly

Leave and never need to say goodbye
Need to live and just be free
Have you there right beside me
But I take a glimpse at reality
and see

That I can't be an angel too
Got so much more living to do
I need to be all I can be
and let you just watch over me

So I'll put a flower on your heart
and walk away with a new start

Even though I'll still be missing you
I know what's true,

That, Someday I'll be an angel too
