Crying For An Angel
Music in E by Les Copeland (SOCAN)
Lyrics by Michael Frank (BMI)
Dedicated to the memory of Les's daughter Carmelita Maria Elena Copeland
October 23 1983 - October 25, 1983

Crying for an angel
seems so contradictory to do
But Baby I've been crying
ever since the day I lost you
My dear you left us before
Our lives together got started
My heart burst when the preacher said
God bless our dear departed
In my heart I know
God has you in a better place
Though my heart aches
as days go by without you
in my space
Crying for an angel
seems so contradictory to do
Baby I've been sobbing
Every day as I miss you
Guitar solo
I'm gonna turn my spirit around
By keeping you in my gaze
Imagine you prancing
And dancing to your song
It helps me lift my
haze
I won't have to wonder
How your life might have been
Joy will wash over me
Knowing I will join you after while
Basking in the glow of
your vibrant youthful smile
Guitar solo
Crying for an angel
seems so contradictory to do
Sweetheart I'm no longer crying
I know now I never lost you
Crying for you my angel
Is now a happy thing for me to do
Right now I'm holding you
I'm holding you
Guitar melody & harmonica solo out
