Heaven is her home
The angel wondered why
All that she had owned
Had somehow left her side

And soon the angel reached
The greatness of the sea
I saw her from the beach
And heard her ask of me,

"Why'm I forced to drown
When heaven is my home?"
I said "Drop the stone right now
You needn't die alone."

But the angel told me
That I could never know
"It's too much a part of me
To ever let it go"

The angel told me
I couldn't understand
I said "Angel hold me!"
But she wouldn't take my hand

I hope angels are like people
In death and where they go
So maybe this angel
Can somehow make it home
