I went to a funeral of a close friend recently and they played this song. I don't think it's an appropriate funeral song, but then people maybe don't listen to the words of the verses that closely.
In the arms of an angel Fly away from here From this dark cold hotel room And the endlessness that you fear You are pulled from the wreckage Of your silent reverie Youre in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort there
Teen angel, can you hear me? Teen angel, can you see me? Are you somewhere up above? And I am still your own true love? Teen angel, teen angel, answer me, please.
Song: Teen Angel Artist: Mark Dinning (Yeah, I know...it's an oldie. But it never gets old.)
She was pure like snowflakes No one could ever stain The memory of my angel Could never cause me pain Years go by I'm lookin' through a girly magazine And there's my homeroom angel on the pages in-between
My blood runs cold My memory has just been sold My angel is the centerfold Angel is the centerfold
God only knows the times my life was threatened just today. A reckless car ran out of gas before it ran my way. Near misses all around me, accidents unknown; Though I never see with human eyes the hands that lead me home.
But I know they're all around me, all day and through the night. When the enemy is closing in, I know sometimes they fight To keep my feet from falling. I'll never turn away. If you're asking what's protecting me, then you're gonna hear me say.
Angels watching over me, every move I make. Angels watching over me. Angels watching over me, every step I take. Angels watching over me.
I, I'm driving black on black Just got my license back I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me tonight
You're my angel.
ReplyDeleteCome and save me tonight.
You're my angel.
Come and make it all right.

ReplyDeleteWill you be mine ?
My darling dear, love you all the time

I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you

ReplyDeleteIn the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
Youre in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

And I just realized...the title is wrong. Today is the 27th, not the 17th. Don't see a way to edit it, though.
