In Remembrance of My Lost Angel

Submitted by Carl Halling on Tue, 2020-09-08 06:55

I feel a deep, deep sorrow,
As life nears its final page,
The hard times that come with age,
It’s enough to make a good man rage,

But somehow, there’s a special sorrow,
In tears cried for love long gone,
By eyes that look back filled with pain,
At my lost angel.

I feel a deep, deep sorrow,
In promise that’s unfulfilled,
In youth that has been misspent,
In a life with so much regret,

But somehow, there’s a special sorrow,
In tears cried for love long gone,
By eyes that look back filled with pain
At my lost angel.

Angel, I remember you,
I’ve missed you for so long,
Angel, you belong
To memories,

Angel, when I think of you,
I think of sad romantic songs,
Songs that make me long
For yesterday.

I feel a deep, deep sorrow,
As life nears its final page,
The hard times that come with age,
It’s enough to make a good man rage,

But somehow, there’s a special sorrow,
In tears cried for love long gone,
By eyes that look back filled with pain
At my lost angel.

Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words: 
'In Remembrance of My Lost Angel', a lamentation for lost love and lost opportunities, was written as a song in early 2016, although it was an updating of a similar lyric dating from 1999.

I'm sorry to hear about them, Teddy, and if I was honest, this song is not for one but many such angels, I'm so pleased you love it so much, that means so much. One day on the radio perhaps...bye for now. Carl.
