Angel of Light



When the seas all burn in the darkest night,
And I see your reflection in the firelight.
Don't think that I won't care; I will always find you there.
When your storms arise, you will be alright.

When the forest echoes with happiness,
And the whole world sees your loveliness.
I'll celebrate with you, only if you want me to.
You know, I could never love you any less.

I can’t get these visions out of my head.
So I’ll pick up my guitar and play awhile instead.
The strings they tell the tale, leaving out no detail.
It seems we’ve said all that needs to be said.

Pretty fire bolts of love are flowing.
While the loneliness inside me is slowly growing.
With a love unrequited, and feeling uninvited.
Goodbye, it's time for me to be going.

Up the winding stairs the lady walks in white.
I watch her for a time, until she's out of sight.
As she is ascending, she finds her happy ending.
But it's not for me to share in this glorious delight.
