My Angel

I heard your bell ring
in the middle of the night
rest little angel, rest...
I knew you had come a long way
in search for this very night

So proud you are
to have joined the ranks
nestled upon your shoulders
wings of wisdom and golden light...
rest little angel, rest...

You will always be here
right by my side
like training wheels
til I learn to ride...
rest little angel, rest...

And in the days
that lay ahead
the little nudge, the hesitance
within my gaze
I'll know that your working
guiding me along
rest little angel, rest.
