HEAVEN TOOK YOU FOR AN ANGEL

from MONA LISA SMILE by Billy O'Dwyer Bob

/

lyrics

Chorus
Heaven took you for an angel
Gave you wings and left you fly
Took off on the breeze a-blowing
Like a bird up in the sky.
Now this life just seems so lonely
As the hands of time go slowly by
Heaven took you for an angel
And all that I could do was cry.

Funny how the way things happen
Feels like only yesterday
We laughed and talked about the good times
Things we'd do together, come what may.
But days would turn into tomorrows
Weeks go by and years roll on
Then heard one day that you were leaving
You closed your eyes and you were gone.

Chorus

Now I sit alone and wonder
Never can quite work it out
Where life goes and what's out yonder
And what this crazy world's about.
And it's hard to face tomorrow
You get up and you struggle on
Now everyday just seems much longer
Every moment that you've gone.

Chorus
