Karen calls this “Angel in the driveway.” What if a workaholic met an angel in his driveway?
Lyrics
The Angel With The Light In His Eyes I pulled in the drive under stormy skies I was tired and the hour was late When I saw the angel with the light in his eyes standing by my garden gate He beckoned for me to stand by his side in the garden on that cold, dark night And I watched in wonder as the light from his eyes Made each room of my home shine bright The light shined first on my child as he slept and I was able to see his dreams I saw the loves in his heart and the secrets he kept but none of them included me Then my heart turned cold as I realized that the light was shining on me And I knew that the angel with the light in his eyes was looking where my heart should be When the light shined in on the room where I sleep there lay the love of my life But deep in her heart I could see that she was no longer my love, just my wife Then my heart turned cold as I realized that the light was shining on me And I knew that the angel with the light in his eyes was looking where my heart should be The light shined last on a dusty shelf on a book that was old and worn My grandfather's bible sat all by itself as I read it my heart grew warm "In the beginning ... " the book began and as the morning replaced the night His light showed my heart how to love again the angel with the light in his eyes Angel with the light in his eyes Angel with the light in his eyes
