*If I Were An Angel (2)*

If I were an angel
I'd sit down and cry
Because I feel so helpless
I can't do anything as I watch the world die
I can't seem to figure a way to clean up the mess
All I can do is linger and wait
Wait here above the clouds in the sky
Once again a life is taken because of hate
As I caress my wings I sit and begin to sigh
Today no one can help not even fate
I must go now
I better hurry before I am late
So many souls not enough time to do it all
I don't know how
Greeting each man woman and child at the golden gate
Each waiting for me to to do my name call
There are too many rushing to get in
I ask them to line up against the cloud wall
I then tell them
This isn't a competition no ones going to win
So please walk slow
Your turn wil come around
Even though in the back of my mind
I know the line will only begin to grow
So please wait and be kind
People stand there sad as can be
Walking without making a sound
Their loved ones they no longer can see
But if they look into thier heart
The loved ones can be found
They truely never did part
The pain they felt is free
If I were an angel I would find a way
To put this evil vibe in the world to rest
Every night I pray for that very day
But every day seems to be a test
I don't know what to do or say
All I can do is my best
Greet each person with respect
Wrap my wings around them and hold on tight
I will guard them from neglect
I will try to make things right
I'm their angel now
I will protect them the best that I can
Living in heaven I will show them how
Right next to thier side
I will forever stand
The truth to them I will never hide
