the smile that lights up
the glance that disguises itself
and you leave to dance in heaven
you calm me down you lie to me
then you slip softly
into the most beautiful sleep
sleep my angel
in eternal innocence
sleep my angel
heaven is your last home
fly my angel
life is sweeter elsewhere
sleep, sleep, sleep, my angel sleep
the Angelus bell sounds
fly, fly, fly
this is my youth that rises up
these are my dreams which are hurt
I am a tightrope dancer
hovering in the mist
I walk over the wire of your steps
I tumble, I fall
and I plunge into the foam
of days that tell me about you.
sleep my angel
in eternal innocence
sleep my angel
heaven is your last home
fly my angel
time will heal my pain.
