Tami Neilson - She Dances with Angels lyrics
[Tami Neilson - She Dances with Angels lyrics]
God was givin' out girls in Wilson County
The night her Mama first saw her pretty face
And she made her Daddy cry
When she smiled and waved goodbye
Walking into first grade
She does somersaults and
Winter's day snow-angels
'Til her cheeks are red and Mama calls her in
Christmas Eve of '96
Tinsel halo and paper wings
They use up a roll of film
While a little shepherd sings
"Hark the Herald angels
Glory to the newborn King"
She dances with angels
'Til she learns to fly
She dances with angels and watches the sky
Now she wears socks with toes
And ponytails and makeup
And she blushes pink when boys
Call on the phone
Daddy prayed for nerves of steel
When she got behind the wheel
Of that big truck alone
When she laughs it's all the
Colours of the rainbow and when she cries
They just can't seem to find the sun
16 candles on her cake
She made a wish and blew them out
Like the light inside their hearts when
She left without a sound
God gave her feet that were not
Made to stay on the ground
She dances with angels she's learning to fly
She dances with angels
We're watching the sky
Preacher said, "Ashes to ashes
" when they laid her in the ground
Nothin' here on this earth can
Hold their baby down
It can't hold their baby down
She dances with angels she's learning to fly
She dances with angels keep watching the sky
All the of heaven can't believe their eyes
She dances with angels i'm watching the sky
She dances with angels i'm watching the sky
God was takin' home girls from Wilson County
The night that heaven first
Saw her pretty face
The night her Mama first saw her pretty face
And she made her Daddy cry
When she smiled and waved goodbye
Walking into first grade
She does somersaults and
Winter's day snow-angels
'Til her cheeks are red and Mama calls her in
Christmas Eve of '96
Tinsel halo and paper wings
They use up a roll of film
While a little shepherd sings
"Hark the Herald angels
Glory to the newborn King"
She dances with angels
'Til she learns to fly
She dances with angels and watches the sky
Now she wears socks with toes
And ponytails and makeup
And she blushes pink when boys
Call on the phone
Daddy prayed for nerves of steel
When she got behind the wheel
Of that big truck alone
When she laughs it's all the
Colours of the rainbow and when she cries
They just can't seem to find the sun
16 candles on her cake
She made a wish and blew them out
Like the light inside their hearts when
She left without a sound
God gave her feet that were not
Made to stay on the ground
She dances with angels she's learning to fly
She dances with angels
We're watching the sky
Preacher said, "Ashes to ashes
" when they laid her in the ground
Nothin' here on this earth can
Hold their baby down
It can't hold their baby down
She dances with angels she's learning to fly
She dances with angels keep watching the sky
All the of heaven can't believe their eyes
She dances with angels i'm watching the sky
She dances with angels i'm watching the sky
God was takin' home girls from Wilson County
The night that heaven first
Saw her pretty face
