i wish i were an angel
with skin so soft and fair
i'd wrap my wings around you
to fulfill your silent prayer.

we'd ascend toward the heavens
hand and hand, walk toward the light,
i'd take you where no pain exists
and hold you through the night.

in my arms you'd find solace,
and be complete in my embrace,
i'd defy the gods to know your love,
for you i'd fall from grace.
