Song Lyrics

The Angel and the Light

by Jennifer Pitcock

Meredith:
"Teach me how to ride--
I want to know what you know.
Lead me where you will--
I'll go where ever you go.
I may yet still be young--
Just a wee girl in your eyes,
But I'm old enough to love you--
You're my starlight and my sunrise."

Raeth:
"Little Angel, little Love,
You know that I adore you,
You're my sun, my moon, my sky,
There are none I put before you.
What is your desire?
You have only but to ask me.
I'd give you all the world--
Little One, you have unmasked me."

Chorus
She was his Angel,
He was her Light,
No one could challenge the love or the life.
Earth rejoiced in
The rays of sun
The day the Angel and the Light became as one.

Meredith:
"It's been so many years--
Oh, why did you leave me?
Without you, I've been lost--
Can you hear me, can you see me?
I can't believe you're gone--
You're out there somewhere, I know.
Please come back to me--
My Angel won't you fly home?"

Raeth:
"Merrie, my wee lass,
How you've become a woman.
I could not leave your side--
To you I am beholden.
I cannot show my face,
I watch you from a distance.
I guard you and protect you--
That's why I'm bound to this land."

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Though he should have died and left for Heaven,
Something made him stay right here on Earth.
Perhaps it was his love for his young Angel--
So he became an Angel just for her.

(Break)

Meredith:
"Now I know the truth--
You're out there somewhere, hiding."
Raeth:
"You'll never be alone--
Your soul is right beside me."
Meredith:
"I may not see your face--"
Raeth:
"But I watch over your shoulder."
Together:
"Death could not divide us,
But instead, it brought us closer."

Final Chorus
He is her Angel,
She is his Light.
He didn't lose the love with his life.
Beyond the Heavens,
Beneath the sky
Roams the Angel, protecting his Light.
