Angel in Advance

I had an angel (Angel)

I had an angel in heaven

My angel (Angel)

What I would give to have you back

My angel (Angel)

He needed you more than we did

Heaven, heaven needed you back

When we were young

We used to have fun

We were so carefree

And you were always the one

Who kept it so real

I still can see you smiling

But then we grew up

And got into relationships

Sometimes we'd lose touch

So busy trying to raise our kids

And then one day

God put you back into my life

Just us and the guys

Kicking back so many times

We would laugh

We would party

Staying up all night

In the morning over coffee

You and I

Would go on and on

Talking about our lives

And then the day came (Then the day came)

Where you would sit down to say (Sit down to say)

That it was cancer (Cancer)

And we're searching for answers (Answers)

And all that I can say is

I had an angel

I had an angel in heaven

My angel (Angel)

What I would give to have you back

My angel (My angel, angel)

He needed you more than we did

Heaven, heaven needed you back

(Back, back, back, back, back)

(My angel, my angel)

So now I'm standing here

Sipping on my coffee

The tears falling from my eyes

Wishing I could talk to you

Then I see my window pane

I see you sent the drops of rain

I know you made it

Team winning

You didn't lose no battles to cancer

You've gone home to the one with the answers

Of why he took you away from us

I tried to understand

You were always for me

So I'mma do this for you

True friendship picks up

Right where it left off

So I see you in heaven (I see you in heaven)

I had an angel (I had an angel)

I had an angel in heaven

My angel (My angel)

What I would give to have you back

My angel (My angel, angel)

He needed you more than we did

Heaven, heaven needed you back

I was watching over you

And now you're watching over me

I promised you that I would keep you

In everything I do

And you opened your eyes

You nodded for me

And that was the best gift you gave

To give me peace

And I thank you

But I miss you

I'm gonna keep you here with me

(My angel)

Gonna keep you here with me

(My angel)

We love you, listen

You're our angel

My angel

My angel

My angel

My angel
