This is the woman
Who had all the answers
The one I would lean on
For comfort, for strength
Shes never forgotten
One grandchilds birthday
Now she cant remember my name
And it makes me so angry
I shake my fist
And cry out to the heavenly one
Why would you play
Such a cold hearted trick
I thought your job was to love
And the answer came down from above
Shes gonna fly
When her time here is through
First shell have to let go
Of some things she cant use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angels wings
This is the woman
Who saw things so clearly
The one who could pick out
One crumb on the floor
She saw through a white lie
Saw me through loves eyes
She hardly can see anymore
And it makes me so sad
And it just isnt fair
Why should so much be taken away
But when I cry out
For all that shes lost
I silently hear someone say
Shes gonna fly
When her time here is through
First shell have to let go
Of some things she cant use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angels wings
And oh, the wonders shell see
And I know shell remember
To watch over me
Shes gonna fly
When her time here is through
First shell have to let go
Of some things she cant use
Cause people and places
Memories and faces
Are just way too heavy it seems
To carry on angels wings
To carry on angels wings
