I saw your shadow in the candlelight
Slowly fading into the endless night
Your voice still lingers in the empty air
A ghost of love that is always present
And I reach out, but you slip away
Through the silence where you lie
Sleep now, my angel, don't cry
I will keep your dreams beyond the sky
Even in the darkness, I will be near
A whisper of love that you will always hear
Stay with me, in my dreams
Cold are the stars where you now reside
But I still feel you deep down
Each tear falls like broken glass
Moments we lost and that cannot last
Through the pain, I call your name
But the echo is always the same
Sleep now, my angel, don't cry
I'll keep your dreams beyond the sky
Even in the darkness, I'll be near
A whispered love you'll always hear
I never left, I'm still here
If I could follow where you went
I would guide you through the unknown darkness
I would trade the dawn for a last breath
To steal you from the hands of death
But time doesn't bend, and destiny doesn't break
Even so, I love you through the pain
Sleep now, my angel, close your eyes
I will find you where silence lies
Beyond sadness, beyond fear
In every dream, I will find you here
I'm with you, always
So sleep, my angel, sleep
