Thanks for checking in!
Story behind the song
A melody I had for several years. I "found" the words for this one when I met Carla, who is now my wife.
Lyrics
An Angel’s Face

What should I say.
Where do I start.
I’m so afraid,
She’ll break my heart.
And the words I’ll never find,
To tell her all I feel inside.
When evening falls,
I’ll try to sleep.
She haunts my nights,
With restless dreams.
Is it just a fantasy,
To think she’ll always be with me.
Now I know I’ve touched an angel’s face.
I’ve gazed into her eyes.
I’ve felt her soft and warm embrace,
I’ve kissed her lips so sweet divine.
I’ve held an angel’s hand in mine.
And if she cries,
Alone at night.
If angels fall,
From weary flight.
If in my arms she needs to rest,
I’m only praying for the chance.
Time stands still when she’s away.
I think about her night and day.
I feel more than I can say,
I search for words anyway.
I’ve been waiting patiently,
For her to say she’ll be with me.
One memory I won’t forsake,
I’ll keep it to my dying day;
The time I touched the beauty of,
An angel’s face.
