Me and some of the boys were sitting around the other night |
|
Started talking about politics, religion, love and life |
|
And what a shame it was about 9/11 |
|
And what about hell and what about heaven |
|
And is there or isn't there angels on earth |
|
And then one guy said |
|
Well you can take that for what it's worth |
|
If it's something I can see or something I can touch |
|
Well I might believe in all that stuff |
|
So I just had to say to him |
|
Are you telling me that you've never seen an angel? |
|
Never felt the presence of one standing by? |
|
No robe of white |
|
No halo in site |
|
Well you missed the most obvious thing |
|
Man, are you blind? |
|
Just look in your mothers eyes |
|
And then I said who went through the pain |
|
And smiled through the tears on the day of your birth? |
|
She counted your fingers and toes and thank god you were whole |
|
Son you outta know who loved you first, that's right |
|
And who always came running everytime you cried out |
|
And how many more things have you forgotten about |
|
And who tried their best to teach you wrong from right |
|
And how many nights did she leave on the light |
|
While she waited and prayed that you came in |
|
And who'd be there for you right up to the end |
|
Think about it tonight |
|
Are you telling me that you've never seen an angel? |
|
Never felt the presence of one standing by? |
|
No robe of white |
|
No halo in site |
|
Well you missed the most obvious thing |
|
Aww Man, are you blind? |
|
Just look in your mothers eyes |
|
Aww Man, are you blind? |
|
Just look in your mothers eyes |
|
That's right |
