Luminescence

Lyrics

My Angel At Home

The lure of the seemingly unattainable can be so strong.

Relationships can start out with a deep desire

for the privilege of a lifetime spent with the person of our dreams.

Difficulties can come along and cause us to forget the affections that stirred our hearts in the beginning.

At this point it can be tempting to give up on our relationships,

rather than realise that the wife of our youth is really our angel at home.

 

 

I’d make up excuses to walk by your lane

I noticed you sitting by the window pane

You caught my attention you made my soul fly

I diverted my glance when you captured my eye

So beautiful

 

And now you are my Angel

Heaven’s melody

My Angel

Shining in the night

My Angel at home

 

I don’t know what happened, we drifted apart

Too busy with living; your tender heart

Like a rose needs a gardener, I neglected the soil

My words sometimes hurt you and made you recoil

So miserable

 

But still you are my Angel...

 

Why be distracted by another one’s love

When my angel at home is sent from above

I will rejoice in the wife of my youth

And I will be blessed with a fountain of truth
