Angel Wings At the ending of the day when I'm weary After a waterfall of tears have all been cried And I'm feeling like the skies will always be dreary Nothing's there to fill the emptiness inside. I lay my head upon my favorite pillow Just close my eyes to block all the sorrow wonderin' where I'll ever find the strength inside- to do it all again- tomorrow. And then I feel it- inside me. I feel it- around me. Like a gentle hand just wiped away the tears- and held me close to wash away my fears. It's you, my angel, watching over me. And I know no matter what tomorrow brings, You'll be here to wrap me in your angel wings- your lovin' angel wings. The sun comes up, it's time to face the day and I think that things are going to be all right- But as the day wears on my nerves begin to fray- I feel the hollowness that creeps in every night. And like clockwork all the tears begin to fall As I look at my reflection in the glass- the eyes looking back at me make me feel small- and I ask, my God, how long's this going to last? And then I feel it- inside me. I feel it- around me. Like a gentle hand just wiped away the tears- and held me close to wash away my fears. It's you, my angel watching over me. And I know no matter what tomorrow brings, You'll be here to wrap me in your angel wings- your lovin' angel wings.  Thank God for your angel wings Beautiful Poetry © 2002 ~ Ellen M. DuBois
