You Are My Angel

Your body is a comforting blanket to my soul,
The pieces of your heart make mine whole.
Whenever there is a tear,
I'm safe to know that you are here.
Your arms support me from a fall,
Sometimes all I need is one little call.
Whatever it is you're always there,
And I want you to know that I care.

You hold me up when I'm falling to the ground.
When I get lost, you make sure I am found.
When I'm wrapped tight in your arms, nothing can go wrong.
And I can only wish to be there oh so long.
The smile on your face
Takes away all my disgrace.
And then you turn my frown,
Upside down.
That's when I know it will be okay,
For tomorrow will be another day.
And when that phone rings
My heart will be given wings.
It will fly to the sky,
Where my beloved lives way up high.
And there he will help me cope,
For you are not only my shield, my guide, my hope
You are my angel.
