DREAMS There’s an angel standing guard while she is sleeping He’ll protect her till the morning sunshine’s He sits by her bedside and watches As she relives the memories of time
Remember the time when you held her On the day God called you away You said you were going to heaven You knew you just couldn’t stay
Her tears you knew she was hiding So her heart wouldn’t show any pain If only you where here to hold her She’d tell you all of her dreams
You taught her to love all Gods creatures You taught her her prayers at bedtime You taught her to love one another Now teach her that life must go on
You bought her a gold chain and locket I remember the words that you said If ever she was lonely and needed To see your face once again Just open the little gold locket And remember the love that’s inside
It’s not the little gold locket That she holds so dear to her heart It’s the memories you placed inside it That she’ll treasure all the days of her life Someday you will meet in God’s heaven I know you’ll be waiting for her
So stay by her bedside and watch her Protect her till the morning sunshine’s You can dream all your dreams together Let her dream of all her good times
