David Lingabee Songs & Songwriting

She cried a gentle tear,
A sign of what she was thinking,
So beautiful was her sigh of loss,
An angel becoming human.

I listened to all her words of grief,
She coyly told her story,
Angels aren’t supposed to feel,
Just surround us in their glory.

Chorus
I listened well, her strains unfolding,
I learned how we’re all human.
I let her know I understood,
I let her know I heard her,
I let her know I’ll not leave off
Till she feels retouched by heaven.

I helped her with a question,
So softly guided within,
She smiled and said she realized,
She knows where she had been.

Angels live within humans,
And yes, they also feel,
We’re all deep down part angel,
And we appear so we stay real.

Chorus
I listened well, her strains unfolding,
I learned how we’re all human.
I let her know I understood,
I let her know I heard her,
I let her know I’ll not leave off
Till she feels retouched by heaven.

I love to be truly listened to,
It makes me feel as one,
And to time the exact right question,
Makes looking within so calm.
