Loss of an Angel
©Kelli Cates

I remember the way
The light danced off her eyes
Her smile lit up the world
And she hardly even tried
I remember my fears
When those eyes lost their spark
But that smile still shone
Until the world itself turned dark

I asked her "Are you scared?"
She said "No I'm not...it's just a new life."

Memory, deep instilled in me
The love we shared will stay with me
And I know it's a given, one day we must die
But I wasn't ready for that angel to fly

I remember the way
She always seemed so strong
The world followed her lead
She made me feel like I belonged

I asked her "Are you scared?"
She said "No I'm not...it's just a new life."

(Chorus)

And these memories will stay
All the good she left behind
Will be the legacy she leaves
Until the day that it's my time

And I won't be scared
After all...it's just a new life
