So many things I didn't know
The day God made you mine.
How could someone so small
Hold my heart in her hand?
I loved looking at you.
Holding you close and breathing you.
And, yet, so much I didn't see.
I didn't see you slowly leaving
or know my heart would break.
I didn't know my soul would shatter
And the sun would dim forever.
Had I noticed...
I wouldn't have changed a thing.
You were my gift,
For one bright shining moment
I held perfection in my arms.
I watched it smile
I was loved by an angel,
And she was MINE.
And I didn't know...
God, calls his angels home first.
