An angel came to me But I was not crying And my heart was not bleeding It said that it could save me But that isn't what I need The words "I can help you leave" Came out of its many mouths And now I see From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again An angel came to me When I was seventeen It said, "I know what you need For you to be at peace Please sit upon my wings" I said, "I'm scared, please leave me be" It said, "Why can't you see You joined the world empty handed And this is how you'll leave?" And now I see What shall I become When this body is dead and gone? What shall I become? What shall I become? An angel came to me During the autumn wind of eve It said, "Life is but a dream" I said, "This can not be" I feel, I smell, I hear, I see It asked if I was scared of where It was going to take me I said, "Yes," it said "Child don't be scared You pass as all things do This body can die and die again A new adventure awaits" And now I see I am one of your wings I am one of your tongues I am one of your faces I am one of your eyes From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again From the sky, we came Now we may go back again Now we may go back again Now we may go back again Now we may go back again
