[Verse]
The Dtouch of your Ghand        Awill let me Dknow 
you take me Gin    and let me Ago  
if not for Dlove   why would we Bmmeet 
how is it Gdone, two into Emone, so eAasily  
were lifted up by Dangels 
higher than the Bmworld 
strong enough to Emleave it, bound to learn the Gsecrets
angels never Aheard  
were lifted up by Dangels  
you underGstand        Ayet never  Dsay 
how every Gplan   would fade aAway  
if not for Dlove    where would you Bmbe 
ashes to Gdust, water to Emrust, away from Ame  
were lifted up by Dangels 
higher than the Bmworld 
strong enough to Emleave it, bound to learn the Gsecrets
angels never Aheard  
were lifted up by Dangels  
given wings to Bmfly  
leave the night beEmhind us, trust the light to Gfind us
even as we Arise  
were lifted up by Dangels  Bm  
[Instrumental]
D                Bm                D               A
[Verse]
were close enough to Dheaven 
above  the Bmrain  
darkness cannot Emreach us let the angels Gteach us
only love reAmains  
were lifted up by Dangels 
higher than the Bmworld 
strong enough to Emleave it, bound to learn the Gsecrets
angels never Aheard  
close enough to Dheaven 
above  the Bmrain  
darkness cannot Emreach us let the angels Gteach us
only love reAmains  
fade
were lifted up by Dangels 
higher than the Bmworld
