Can't Cry Forever
Angel's Wings
It rained upon a sunny day
Cloudless gleaming pearly way
Unexpected as it seemed
A rosy path for you was deemed
≈≈≈
Fragments of our lives are gone
The pain still lives deep down inside
Mem-o-ries will keep us strong
Your spirit returns with the tide
≈≈≈
You cannot cry forever
Life is a like a fading Ember
Lift your head up and remember
You cannot cry forever
≈≈≈
Angel's wings float down upon me
They ease the pain that's in this moment
Angel's wings are right beside me
They guide me with the love you sent
≈≈≈
The tears came through in multitudes
When you read the Beatitudes
Your voice is soft with harmony
Emotions conveyed tenderly
≈≈≈
You cannot cry forever
Life is a like a fading Ember
Lift your head up and remember
You cannot cry forever
≈≈≈
Go on now my wounded soul
Let some joy live in your heart
Go on now my wounded soul
Let the light shine in the dark
≈≈≈
You cannot cry forever
Life is a like a fading Ember
Lift your head up and remember
You cannot cry forever
≈≈≈
Let your tears flow, flow, and flow
Feel the feelings you must feel
Look inside and let it go, go and go
Remember what your mother said
Keep the love inside your heart
But child of mine don't cry forever
