I remember layin' in your arms

I nearly fell asleep in your warmth

When the only words on your lips

Were 'you're beautiful'

Its hard to accept, babe

An angel's lips forming those words

I'm ugly in the beauty of your light

Yet you whispered 'can I keep you forever?'

My response buried in questions

Would you relinquish your halo

Give up your wings

Allow your beautiful light to dim

Speak again, beautiful bright angel

Those soft words, beautiful in your voice

My saving grace, reflected in your eyes

Tell me again, how I'm beautiful under my scars

If you fly away, take me with you

Remain my saving grace

Whisper it over my skin

Baby, never lose your halo
