Restless Angel Poem by PAUL COLVIN

Lay down easy, restless angel
Lay down slow and rest your head
Lay down easy, restless angel
And let this night, pass in your bed.

Dawn is coming, coming through the darkness
The red sun's rising, in the sky
Make a wish now, restless angel
Before I leave, and say goodbye.

If you hear me, in the distance
Call my name, and I'll be there
I'm so lonely, life is lonely
I need a love, love to share.

I'm beside you, always will be
I am lying, where you are
You're the one, the one I dream of
You're my sun, my guiding star.

I see your hair, lay on your pillow
Your perfume lingers, in the air
If you miss me, like I miss you
Just turn around and I'll be there.

Silks and satins, shimmer gently
The morning light, picks out your face
The lace and cotton, dress I bought you
Is laid across, my favourite place.

Lay down easy, restless angel
Lay down slow and rest your head
Lay down easy, restless angel
And let this night, pass in your bed.
