Angel Wings

She sat in her hospital bed

Drawin pictures of the sky

And through all of the pain she felt

She had never asked why

But when the doctor walked in

And said "It's time for your meds"

With tears in her eyes

She looked at the doctor and said

How big are angel wings?

Are they small enough for me?

Do they make them little in the size I might need?

They say where I'm goin'

I won't feel no more pain

So I really need to know,

How big are angel wings?

I can't ask mama

I know it'd make her sad

I don't like to see her cry

And it does the same thing to Dad

And at night when I sleep

I see heaven in my dreams

So please won't you answer this question for me?

How big are angel wings?

Are they small enough for me?

Do they make them little in the size I might need?

They say where I'm goin'

I won't feel no more pain

So I really need to know,

How big are angel wings?

And they say where I'm goin'

I won't feel no more pain

So I really need to know now,

How big are angel wings?
