Are there angels, have they wings, who would dare believe such things in a world where faith is rarely blind, angels can be hard to find, but don’t despair, angels are near.
Up in heaven angels fly, no one here knows how or why, but if you look closely, all around, there are angels to be found, but come what may, angels can’t stay,
Refrain
Angels don’t belong down here on earth, they're gone before you know it and when they’re gone it hurts, so treasure every moment from the moment of their birth ‘cause you know angels don’t belong down here on earth.
Where they’re angels, there is hope, so when you feel you just can’t cope and the world around turns cold and gray and your angel’s far away, well don’t you cry, angels don’t die.
Refrain
Angels don’t belong down here on earth, they're gone before you know it and when they’re gone it hurts, so treasure every moment from the moment of their birth ‘cause you know angels don’t belong down here on earth
