Heaven in Darkness

Lyrics:

When it’s dark, I turn to you
and your halo lights my way
Then your hand, it pulls me through
the shadow upon this day

I drop my head and bend my knees
I long for you to stay
But you don’t – you won’t
You pick me up and carry me away

If you’re painting my tomorrow
I will never fear today
And I’ll soon forget my sorrows
And the tears you’ve wiped away

I drop my head and bend my knees
I long for you to stay
But you don’t – you won’t
You pick me up and carry me away

So often I have rested on your
promise to be near
I have no eyes for wandering
Your love for me is here
And even though these troubles come and go
I will know
that heaven is so close
That heaven is so close

Willow (Lyrics)

Listen to Willow from AngelaWatford on Myspace.

Lyrics:

Through green meadows and across the turning fields of cotton
On that precious land I love, my heart and soul run free
I remember you my dear, your golden hair a’shining
Underneath the flowing leaves of the weeping willow tree

Find me dancing, spinning, sheltered by the loving willow
See the waves of bonnets nodding gently here for you
Like the days when we were young -no worries, cares or sorrows
Stay with me below this tree until the day is through

Tell me that you understand
There’s no need for roses
All we have and all we need is
under our noses

Have you noticed that the sky is twinkling, ever glowing
Holding all the shining stars in place for you to see
You, my dear, should know by now – my love for you is growing
on and on with every moment like this willow tree

Tell me that you understand
There’s no need for roses
All we have and all we need is
under our noses

You, my dear, should know by now – my love for you is growing
on and on with every moment like this willow tree

Kite (Lyrics)

Listen to Kite from Angela-Watford on SoundCloud.

Lyrics:

Friends are hard to find, sometimes they’re harder to keep
you should know that you could never lose me
If the clouds ahead turn grey, these paper boats will sail away
and never even dream of sinking

Anytime you feel the weight, these shoulders are here
to share the load and keep you running
When the grass is greener there, I’ll tear the fence down – I don’t care
unless you find it cool for jumping

You say happiness can be so hard
when everyone around is hurting
But if you are a kite that wants to blow away
I’ll hold tight to this string to make you stay

If your joy won’t overflow, then ask me to pray
That the Lord’s true love and peace surround you
Never give up, don’t let go. How else can I let you know?
This girl could not go on without you

You say happiness can be so hard
when everyone around is hurting
But if you are a kite that wants to blow away
I’ll hold tight to this string to make you stay

You say happiness can be so hard
when everyone around is hurting
But if you are a kite that wants to blow away
I’ll hold tight to this string to make you stay

I’ll hold tight to this string to make you stay
I’ll hold tight to this string to make you stay

One of a kind (Lyrics)

Lyrics:

Tell me that I will see you again
Tell me that one day I’ll live closer
To you, my friend

I wanna live in your smile
It brings out the best in me consistently
You’re so my type

When my hair begins to fade
And lines are drawn across my face
I’ll look to you as one of a kind
TheĀ greatest of friends that one could hope to find

You tie me up in a bow
I don’t care to free myself
I’m never letting go

When my hair begins to fade
And lines are drawn across my face
I’ll look to you as one of a kind
The greatest of friends that one could hope to find

So sweet it would be
To have you hear with me
