simple sidewalk angel
i've waited to touch your wings
with glowing eyes and peaceful heart
i've wondered where you've been
could i follow you to the end of time?
or, back from the edge of the earth?
if i took your hand tonight,
would i see the universe?
lovely sidewalk angel
my heart has ached in your absence
i could not find my way for long
without your watchful guidance
but with you close my eyes are wide
seeking that brilliant light
the sun, the stars, the moon that shine
that spear the burdening night
quiet sidewalk angel
i wish that i knew what is to come
fear can sometimes keep me from
the rewards i might otherwise have won
but knowing may neither give me will
nor the strength to follow those dreams
perhaps i'll continue day to day
learning about what life means
