Angel

A fallen angel

My hearts delight

Simplicity is the kiss

That makes a smile alight

A broken angel

With a missing heart

A lost beat

I’ll hold it close

A smile is what I ask

Do you ever dream of happiness?

Light up the world

With one single word

With a far away look

I wonder what it took

To put a smile on your face

To put a heart in that chest

Do you dream of happiness?

What’s it take, to make or break?

A smile is all I ask

Just a glimmer of some happiness

When you’re the world

That’s all I really ask

Light up the world

Sometimes it’s good to forget the past
