sent from above

Hope you’re okay and you manage to get some sleep soon. Alright, love, I’ll speak to you in a bit. You once showed me a sign sent from above Traces of a life I once loved You’d never been pious, and neither had I But we were always sent a feather in white See, I’m used to dealing with things alone Now I’m unsure how to cope on my own I search in the dark in the hope that I’ll find The warmth I once knew to reside in your eyes If the angels came to take you away Tell me, how would they feel if I begged them to let you stay? You’re a world away now I know But it’s easier said than done to let you go ‘Cause I’m getting older while you’ll always stay the same At my bedside immortalised in a frame But the bed next to mine lay empty tonight Shrouded in stars that obscure my sight I still hear your voice in the dark sometimes Echoes of a time you were in my life You once showed me a sign sent from above An embrace to remind of your love
