The Only One lyrics

She was the only one

Of my flesh and blood

Now I have no calling

I can do no worldly good

I sit silent, I sit mourning

I sit listless all the day

Mostly lost the voice to speak

And any words to say except:

Does heaven have enough angels yet?

I've gone hard and I've gone cold

I can't make the pieces of this cracked life fit

Please forgive me for wanting to know:

Does heaven have enough angels yet?

Together, oh, together

No, there'll be no more of that

I would not dare for myself to ask:

Does heaven have enough angels yet?

She was the only one

Of my own flesh and blood

Sometimes I hear her calling

Straight from the house of god
