Echoes of Angels
You dream the hours to pass
Until you can feel this love again
And in this one sided world you feel
The light against your fragrant skin
And in this moment
You finally realize that
Love was here, and it’s in your arms
In the middle of the night
A mare comes to scare you
But I save you from your dreams that won’t come true
And in my eyes your tears subside
And bring the beauty that I lay awake to see
It’s the way you smile when you sleep
Just knowing that I am next to you
It’s the way my heart beats
So hard it pounds right through you
It’s the way your eyes look in mine
I cant help but look back…
The echoes of angels
Keep you awake sometimes
With the memories of dreams long gone
But the endless ageing
And the sunless hours
Bring out the demons of everyone’s pasts
Keep alive the fire inside you
For this love won’t be the death of us
I know it scares you
Because it scares me too
But I know you and me are something that just wont break
And every morning I wake
So much better than I was when I was asleep
I smile so bright into your eyes
You wake up just to see me alive
It’s the way you smile when you sleep
Just knowing that I am next to you
It’s the way my heart beats
So hard it pounds right through you
It’s the way your eyes look in mine
I can’t help but look back…
I know sometimes you can’t help but cry
But you know I do my best to stop your tears
And when the drops of heaven subside
I will be hear to heal your wounds
Take the trials from your life
And you wouldn’t be the same
So strong and powerful
So right and vulnerable
And in my eyes I see yours, so beautiful
I know love scares you
Because it scares me too
