Angel

from Dovetail

I am your angel
I was born to protect you
I have come for forgiveness
I hae not been there for you

I'm the one who flew over
When you thought I could see you
I could not, I wasn't looking
I forgot to tip my wings

You were lost, you were bound to be rescued
You were not, and it's my fault no one found you

'Cuz I am your angel
Like it or not you're stuck with me
When I got the assignment
Guess I thought it would be easy

When they said "He will not let your foot be moved"¹
What they meant was that I would be there for you
But I missed my ship, dropped the ball
Saw you slip, let you fall

But I'm still your angel
And I was born to protect you
I have come for forgiveness
I have not been there for you

¹ Psalms 121:3
