I cannot go with you
I must stay behind
And I know I'm gonna miss you
For
a long, long time
Your eyes look so distant
What is it you see
Are you looking at the angels
But
don't want to leave
You made me so happy
You taught me to care
And before you there was nothing
And
then you were there
I will go on living
Thinking 'bout the days
Days of laughter, smiles and sunshine
Through
an evening haze
Let the angels take you
Let them take you home
You have given me your best years
I
won't be alone
Mem'ries will sustain me
'Til my time is come
I'll be looking for the angels
Come
to take me home.
Looking for the angels
Come to take me home
Where I'll join my Daddy
praising Christ the
Son
I'll go with them gladly
When this life is done
I'll be looking for the angels
Come to take me home
