Broken Wing

The only reason an angel will fall Is when they break a wing I know this is true, I found one too And mine could really sing She sang of Heaven all day long And the joy that was waiting her there And anyone she'd meet, outside on the street That's the message that she would share Simply everyone loved my angel Some even called her that name As beautiful as can be, everyone could see We knew since the moment she came I was married to her for fourty-two years And then my angel had to leave For I knew one day that she'd go away Leaving me here to grieve I miss my angel with the broken wing She was also my very best friend It takes fourty-two years and plenty of tears For an angel's wing to mend
