Dance of The Angels

 If you knew that I could see through you,
 your colors would never show
 Because the vision that's revealed to us,
 is not the person that we know

 Some lead with their heads,
 Others hide behind their heart
 And those that follow theirs,
 are the leaders of the "art"

 The Angels came before us,
 danced the lessons of today
 The audience that heard music,
 Felt the movement say...

 It's the Dance of the Angels
 that keeps heaven and earth apart
 It's the Dance of the Angels
 that leaves messages of the heart

Some will learn to listen,
 Some will never hear
Some can touch a wing,
 and some come very near

 You have to earn your right to fly,
 your obligation to the dance
 Sacrifice and honor,
 a willingness to take a chance

 An angel never forfeits
 another mortal's love
 It's a lesson that's imprinted on their souls
 from up above

 Be careful not to glance,
 at a glittering starlight's pace
Study all there is to see,
 within your lover's gentle face

 Because the Angels give flickering notice,
 when the parting must begin
 Never ask them if tomorrow,
 Will be yours to share again

 You can only redeem a promise,
 while devoted to the earth
 And when you arrive in heaven,
you'll grasp the knowledge of its worth

 If you know you're not a dancer,
 and your spirit cannot sway
 Surround yourself with those who lilt,
 and try to learn today

 To join the Dance of Angels,
 wrap your arms around the skin
 Be your lover's velvet blanket,
 and show your heart within

 Wipe away the tear,
 that nourished the soul inside
Kiss the lashes on the windows,
 when all the joy has cried

Sweep away the hair,
 that hides the loving smile
 Rock gently side by side,
 make it forever and awhile

 This is how the Angels,
 begin to learn the dance
 It's the spirit of the flight,
 delay your quickening glance

 Look closely at your presence,
 question why it is you're here,
 Give a purpose to your being,
 and be grateful that you're near

Nearer to discovery
 and all you've come to hold,
 It's the Dance of the Angels,
 showing how we unfold

 The truth is easy to discard,
 Ignore and walk away
 And to have Danced with an Angel,
 was the fate of your today

Some will learn to listen,
Some will never hear
Some can touch a wing,
Some came very near

It's the Dance of the Angels,
 that keeps heaven and earth apart
It's the Dance of the Angels,
 that leaves messages of the heart
