angel of you

whisper by Alistair Chong

these signs are too confusing
which road am i to take?
my sense of soundness is lost
to the destruction in my wake
these crossroads I've crept upon
are deceptive to my heart
but as soon as I've slept its gone
so right here and now I must take a path

take my hand and lead me
guardian angel
show me who I am to be
guardian angel
won't you piece back the parts
guardian angel
i need you here by my heart
guardian angel

where am i to you?
could you show me just a glimpse
before i lose my view,
my eyes cloud over and the final glimmer slips
calm this storm in my spirit
and keep me from this ravaging decay
take my hope, falling, fearful, and lift it
guardian angel, breathe my name, end this misery, show me the way
oh, guardian angel

take my hand and lead me
guardian angel
show me who I am to be
guardian angel
won't you piece back the parts
guardian angel
i need you here by my heart
guardian angel

when you whisper my name
it is my only hope
your voice, angel of song
but when your name is on my breath
it catches in my throat
breaks my heart, and that light is gone

your name
when i hear it
i close my eyes
and hold back the tears
