Angel Dream

Last Night I Had a Dream
That I Went to Heaven
The Place Was More than Fine
It Was Really High, High, Steppin'

There I Met an Angel
That Asked Me Lots of Things
Like All the Things I Learned
What Knowledge Did I Bring

I Sat down and Faced Him
And I Looked Him in the Eye
I Told Him Everything I Learned
Before I Kissed this Life Good bye

I Said "I Really Don't like Lonely
It Causes Lots of Pain
And I Really Hated Dying
Because I Was Alone Again

I Also Don't like Lost Love 
I Lost an Extra Share
There Was No One for Me
I Died with No One There

And Then Before I Came Here
I Learned about True Love
Well, I Lost That Too
I Got No Help from up Above"

Then the Angel Told Me
Don't Be So Hard on You
Something You Forgot to Say
And this I Say for True

You Were Loved More than Most
But You Never Stopped to See
If You'd Only Noticed
But You Would Always Flee

Each Person That You Touched
Thought the World of You
You Shouldn't Put Yourself down So Much
Your Worth Was More than Two

When I Finally Woke up
I Had a Different View
Maybe I Would Be Okay
I Could Even like Me Too
