Gentle angel arriving from distant skies to my side

Angel, you came from far away—how are you now, my dear? A little worn by all the roads, with dust upon your wings so sheer. Angel, you came from far away—I glowed with pure delight, I knew you’d come someday, because I dreamed of you each night. How good it is you’re here with me—your presence calms my pain, Your gentleness is comfort, and your words are sweet like rain. Angel, the sky is somehow held within your open wings, You say that one night from the moon, they’ll come for you with silver strings. They’ll come, you’ll go, you won’t remain—you’re made of higher skies, The earth’s no place of beauty for a soul as pure as your bright eyes. You’ll leave… yes, I already know—I won’t beg you to stay near, But till the moment you depart, I’ll love you—deep, sincere
