Rick Miller - Ode To An Angel

Ode To An Angel Part 1. The Azure Blue Sea (Loss) I once had an angel who watched over me, Her eyes were as blue as the Azure sea. She left one day for a normal life, To make somebody the perfect wife. I once knew an angel who watched over me, Her eyes were a shade of the Azure blue sea. Wish me away like the dreams in your head, Try to forget all the things we said. I dream of my angel, And where she may be. The warmth of her heartbeat, It lingers with me. I once had an angel who watched over me. Part 2. Snowflakes In Your Hair (Sadness) Time drags on like a dying man, I’ve lost the moon and stars. My journey’s reached it’s bitter end, For I know that everything dies. I can see you there in the pale moonlight, Gentle snowflakes fall in your hair. I am reaching now through the closing night, But I know you’re not really there. Part 3. The Hereafter (Anger) A chill wind blows through the gaping hole, Where you ripped out my heart and crushed my soul. The cold of the moon and scorch of the sun, Now mean nothing to me, the demon’s work is done. But beware, the most dangerous are those that have nothing to loose. Be careful what you wish for, which pathways you choose. You stole my life, my song, my laughter, But I will have them back when I come for you in the Hereafter. Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my gun to keep, If you die before I wake, Then I’ll have one less life to take. Part 4. The Gates Of Hell (Acceptance) Meet me at the gates of hell, When our souls are free. I will hold you in my arms, For eternity.
