Heavenly

Heavenly creature, child of the sky 
My love for you, through the end, will never die 
You're the likeness of my flesh and my bone 
You gave love to my heart that was a stone 

You're the amber from heaven that lights my way 
I see hope in your eyes when skies are gray 
Having you is my greatest consolation 
Loving you is both my passion and vocation 

When I'm with you, the hardest toil is a holiday
The mere light in your face makes my day 
I couldn't ask for more but only you 
In crazy world, you're my only thing that's true 

You're a glorious angel from up above 
You gave hope to my heart and gave me love 
I always wish for your smile to be so bright 
That in your way, may you always see the light
