3 Angels
I never got to touch your face
I hid a faded smile
my 3 Angels were placed
to comfort me a while
I never got to feel you grow
or become a rising star
I pray that you will never know
of this hidden scar
I never said the word hello
as I welcomed you to life
the only word I was allowed
was the saddest word goodbye
I never got to see you grin
or hear you laugh out loud
I never got to tuck you in
or watch you sleep so sound
I never said the word hello
as I welcomed you to life
the only word I was allowed
was the saddest word goodbye
just as the years go by
rain will come and go
but ill always hold you inside
i just wanted you to know
I never said the word hello
as I welcomed you to life
the only word I was allowed
was the saddest word goodbye
