Nothing To Fear
While I was asleep
An angel came to me
She whispered things into my ear
She told me I had nothing to fear
She told me things of love and beauty
Things that no mortal was meant to hear
And I prayed that I wouldn't wake,
That I wouldn't miss what she had to say
But I knew that she would go away
With the coming of the day.
The things she whispered into my ear
Were things that no mortal was meant to hear
What words she spoke, what music she made
Strings of sorrowful passion, guitar solos with the power to devastate
Even the hardest of hearts
And she wove her way into my heart, into my soul
But....but I knew it wouldn't last
That with the morning sun, it would be a dream, forgotten and untold.
And as I slept, she stroked my brow
And held me close to her
And for a minute, I almost fell in love
Even if it wasn't real
Something makes me think I would have died
To be in that night forever
But I knew that when the sun rose, it would be a tale of a fairy
Of my dream with her.
And as she stroked my brow and whispered to me
She made me forget the world outside
For a minute, she gave me hope; for a minute, she gave me life
She made me remember what it was to be alive.
And I would have given anything, done anything, for that one night alone
When my beautiful angel came to my bedside
And whispered in my ear, and all the things she told.
But I knew that with dawn's recovery, midnight's supreme reign would subside
And never's final curtain would fall
On my angel, and the things she whispered into my ear
The things that no mortal was meant to hear.
A blossoming flower with a tender power and passion to kiss.
