Why Do Angels Fly so High?

Why do angels fly so high above our clouded sight?

Why do I lie awake every night waiting for one to stop by?

Long, I've dreamed of golden things and everlasting light

Long, I've sang to the moon and the stars as a bird on broken wings

What could wait beyond those gates, so tall and pearly white?

What could I say to help me inside?

You know my name

Will there be an end to this or will I always struggle?

Lord, come and take me or leave me alone to bathe in troubled waters

Why do angels fly so high above our clouded sight?

Why do I lie awake every night waiting for one to stop by?
