We camped out on the living room floor
In our old sleeping bags, by a make-believe fire
In a tent made of covers, we talked for hours
My two brothers and me
Keeping the faith, racing with destiny
They were angels in waiting
Waiting for wings to fly from this world
Away from their pain
Treasuring time, 'til time came to leave
Leaving behind sweet memories
Angels in waiting; angels in waiting for wings
They always knew they never grow old
Sometimes the body is weaker than the soul
In their darkest hour, I made a promise
I will always keep
I'll give them life
I'll let them live through me
They were angels in waiting
Waiting for wings to fly from this world
Away from their pain
Treasuring time, 'til time came to leave
Leaving behind sweet memories
Angels in waiting
Angels in waiting for wings
Angels in waiting
Angels in waiting for me
They were angels in waiting
Waiting for wings to fly from this world
Away from their pain
Treasuring time, 'til time came to leave
Leaving behind sweet memories
Angels in waiting
Angels in waiting for wings
