lyrics

Well I’m no good at goodbyes, but I’d sure liked to have one,
instead of finding out from somebody else half of what had happened.
I sat on the staircase and told myself it couldn’t be true,
Sent 24 texts in a row, didn’t get one back from you.
They say you stopped breathing, said you went in your sleep,
Sounds kind of peaceful, hope it was as it seems.

They asked If I’d like to see you and I just burst in to tears.
How could I see someone so full of life and see them now so full of fear?

So I turned away, never saw you again.
I was just a kid, didn’t know how to deal with it, but I’ve learnt a lot since then.


I heard that heaven’s got a position open
For an Angel with some compassion and the intentions of a Saint.
Well I hope that you get the gig 'cus God knows your right for it.
I have to miss you everyday, at least I know you’re helping out upstairs.


Tried to sing at your funeral, but I got too damn choked up,
But I know you’d have loved me just enough to say that we’re family, and sing it back to me.

I heard that heaven’s got a position open
for an Angel with some compassion and the intentions of a Saint.
Well I hope that you get the gig 'cus God knows your right for it.
I have to miss you everyday, at least I know you’re helping out upstairs.


I picture you with white wings and I see of you smiling.
‘Cus you were always an angel; I guess now it’s official.
