Lyrics
She was a beauty
In every way
She walked with us for a while
She left us today
The world seems empty
I start to cry
I look up into the stars
And can?t believe my eyes
(Chorus)
Every light is turned on in heaven tonight
There?s a brand new angel whose gonna take flight
This feeling?s astounding
Her love is surrounding, sleep tight
Cause there?s a brand new angel
Watching over us tonight
That special smile
Could stop the rain
She wore the scars from her battle
But tried to hide the pain
Sometimes I question
God?s greater plan
But as I look in the sky
Now I understand
(Chorus)
Now she laughs with the other angels
And she?ll be forever young
Peace and freedom ever after
She took that journey home
So don?t cry
Don?t ask why
(Chorus)
