~Angel Candles On The Wall~
ANGEL CANDLES SIT UPON MY WALL
ON MY BALCONY, BENEATH A HUGE TREE
SOME ARE SMALL
SOME ARE TALL
THE MARBLE ONE FOR JOEY
A BABY BLUE ONE FOR BABY MATTHEW
A PINK ONE FOR BABY JACQUELINE
EVERYNIGHT THE CANDLES LIGHT
GLOWS BRIGHT
TO LEAD OUR ANGELS HOME
A RED ONE THERE FOR POLLY
A WHITE ONE FOR BABY FAITH
A YELLOW ONE FOR BABY C.J.
ALL CHILDREN
TAKEN BEFORE THEIR TIME
TO SLEEP ON THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN
THEY WERE YOURS
ONE WAS MINE
A HUGE LAVENDER ONE GLOWS
FOR KIDS LOST AROUND THE WORLD
FOREVER SHINING BRIGHT
LIGHTING UP THE NIGHT
IN A SOFT YELLOW LIGHT
ALWAYS LEADING OUR ANGELS HOME
MANY CANDLES SIT ON THE WALL
SOME ARE SMALL
SOME ARE TALL
SENDING HUGS AND BUTTERFLY KISSES
WORDS OF LOVE, WORDS OF MISSING
TEARS DROP ON THOSE FLAMES
SENDING PRAYERS TO ANOTHER PLAIN
MEMORIES BRING SMILES TO DRY THE TEARS
KNOWING OUR ANGELS, FLY WITH NO FEAR.
IF YOU NEED AN ANGEL TO HUG
LIGHT A CANDLE, AND SEND YOUR LOVE
IT WILL REACH THEM FAR AND NEAR
shhhhh, listen close
AS THEY COME, WHISPER IN YOUR EAR.
ANGEL CANDLES ON THE WALL
SOME ARE SMALL
SOME ARE TALL
ALWAYS LIT
AS DARKNESS FALLS
BECKONING OUR ANGELS HOME
