She walked into heaven
With an empty heart
And as she turned to Jesus
He washed away her scars
And as he sent back out into the light
Something in her eyes --
Said that her fight for life
Was finally gone --
He paced her hospital room
More than a million times
And as the darkness began to draw --
Inside of her eyes --
There was a voice -- That held him tight in it's arms
And as the stars began to fall
An angel from another empty room
Placed her hands upon his heart....
And they sang --
In front of heaven
Until the break of dawn
Let the light of mother earth
Take me away from harm
And as she pulled her lost soul
Tight into her weathered arms
The shattered voice of redemtion
Led her back home
Far away -- From what went wrong....
They stood beside her hospital bed
Preying to those ice cold voices inside of their heads
And as she looked into his eyes
For the last time in her life
She told Jesus -- That his lies
Had finally taken away his only wife.....
And they sang
In front of heaven
Until the break of dawn
Let the light of mother earth
Take her away from harm
And as she pulled her lost soul
Tight into her weathered arms
The shattered voice of redemption
Led her back home
Far away -- From what went wrong....
They laid three different coloured roses
At the foot of her grave --
And as they walked away from her grave
On that very day --
Three more roses -- Appeared in the rain
To tell everybody -- That her lost soul had been saved
And as those lonesome church bells began to ring
She turned into an angel --
And God finally grantid her -- A brand new set of wings....
And they sang
In front of heaven
Until the break of dawn
Let the light of mother earth
Take her away from harm
And as she pulled her lost soul
Back into her weathered arms
That shattered voice of redemtion
Took her back home
Far away from everything that ever went wrong....
That lonely child of only thirteen
Watched his mother fall before his knees
And as her limp body fell onto the ice cold ground
One last kiss from God -- Was grantid upon her lips...
Repeat chorus fade out....

I really like the rhythm of the strands , and the chorus is definitly a cry that most lost then found souls have cried out. I from experience have used such words to call upon..

What wonderful lyrics these are - reminds me in a way of an old song from the 50's 60's sung about Deep in the Valley, I think it was called. Liked the flow of this and the message you convey.

This is sheer brilliance it touches the core of me as I have in the last two weeks lost two of the most important and loved women in my life, I feel the pain and the indescribable sorrow.....

what an effort here
applause for the effort alone... it definitely has potential as a lyric and it is a compelling and sad story in a certain way of seeing it. Very well done a lot of skill shown here by this writer...

ah babe you got the neighbours up and singing in their sorrow filled lives and their singing forces them to pray for the blood on their microphone is splatter from your angel wings beating. ashes turn into saintly dust stained by sins of the world and with the passing of time the child turned into a man who learnt to stand tall in thepurity of his light....let it shine on dont let if all go up in flames. you got a beautiful way about you babe yeah smiling in the shadow listening to you playin 'n singin from your heart.
brilliantly penned
