Tears Of An Angel Lyrics

Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie
It can't be true
That I'm losing you
The sun cannot fall from the sky

Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel.

Stop every clock
Stars are in shock
The river will flow to the sea
I wont let you fly
I wont say goodbye
I wont let you slip away from me

Can you hear heaven cry
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel
Tears of an angel.

So hold on
Be strong
Every day hope will grow
I'm here, don't you fear

Little one don't let go oh oh oh
Don't let go oh oh oh
Don't let go oh oh oh
Cover my eyes
Cover my ears
Tell me these words are a lie

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

For anyone wondering, they wrote this song about their 4 year old niece who died from a brain tumor while they were recording the album.

Love this song, very sad.

Definately about losing someone, and perhaps going into denial about it.

This is one of my favourite songs and one of the only ones to make me properly cry! The lyrics are just amazing.

Potentially triggering

Whenever I feel like giving up in my battle with severe depression, I hear my mom singing this to me in my head. "Everyday hope will grow" and "I'm here, don't you fear little one, don't let go" really resonate with me and play in my head on a loop, and remind me that the last thing I want to is hurt my mom with my selfish decisions. She's my life, and the last thing I want for her is to be eternally distraught.

Suicide does not end the pain, it passes it on to someone else.
