Angel

I once heard an angel sing
She was graceful and danced and showed off her wings

Her eyes sparkled like the shooting stars in the midnight of spring

She laid her gaze upon me 
And we had our fling

I was a fool to have thunk that she wanted a ring
Instead my heart was shot across the sky with a devilish fling

But honestly, who would known I'd be left at my thrown 
As a heartless king
