Once upon a time, there was an angel She did shine, and she did shine, and she didn't shine Somehow she got herself tangled In his heart, and in his mind She laid down her wings and her halo Fate to the ground, to the ground, to the ground Try as she might she couldn't dim her glow Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine With the writing on the walls up in the sky There are thousands of reasons why But they tangled her glow like a line And her heart knew it was time She picked up her spade and an apron With a smile, with a smile, with a smile With every moment, they were taken Feeling fine, feeling fine, feeling fine Dear heart, dear soul, dear memories, please remember me Made of light, fill the sky, i'm flying free With the writing on the walls, up in the sky There are thousands of reasons why But they tangled her glow like a line And her heart knew it was time Knew it was time
