“On the 4th day of compassion I was impressed to write a poem about aids and about the angel that I do believe in my heart is there for us! I call her the 'passageway angel'. The next night I typed it up from my notes, and added the last verse.”

“This song holds a very special place in my heart. I hope you enjoy it!”

AND WHEN SHE WALKED IN THE ROOM
AFTER SO MANY YEARS,
HE LOOKED UP AND SAW HER
HE WAS STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS
SHE WAS MOVING IN SLOW MOTION
EVERYTHING WAS THE SAME,
EXCEPT THAT EVERYTHING WAS DIFFERENT

IN THAT VERY MOMENT, EVERYONE WAS SILENT
AND EVERYONE WAS FRIENDLY,
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS,
EVERYONE WAS SMILING
THOUGH THEIR PAIN WAS APPARENT
AND THE FLOOR WAS WET AND SLIPPERY
WITH THE TRACKS OF THEIR TEARS

AND THEN I SEE SOMEONE STANDING
AT THE SIDE OF THE STAGE
NOT STANDING IN THE SHADOWS
I SEE HER FACE
GLOWING IN THE DARKNESS
IN HER OWN ANGEL WAY
"I HAVE COME TO MAKE YOU BETTER,
I HAVE COME TO TAKE YOU AWAY."

NO ONE SLIPPED AND FELL
THIS TIME, EVERYONE WAS STEADY
SOMEONE HELD MY ARM SO THAT
I WOULD NOT FALL
FOR THE FIRST TIME, IN A LONG TIME
EVERYONE WAS READY
NO ONE SAID A WORD
AND THAT SIMPLY SAID IT ALL

AND THEN I SEE SOMEONE STANDING
AT THE SIDE OF THE STAGE
NOT STANDING IN THE SHADOWS
I SEE HER FACE
GLOWING IN THE DARKNESS
IN HER OWN ANGEL WAY
"I HAVE COME TO MAKE YOU BETTER,
I HAVE COME...TO TAKE YOU AWAY."
I’LL MAKE YOU BETTER

WALKING THROUGH THE ROOM TOGETHER
IN SUSPENDED ANIMATION...
NO ONE SAW US GO... NO ONE SAID GOODBYE
BUT IN MY HEART, I LEAVE
GREAT EXPECTATIONS
THAT YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWERS
TO YOUR QUESTIONS
AND THAT LIFE WILL ONCE MORE...
BE A CELEBRATION...
AND THAT YOU WILL BE TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL
AND THAT YOU WILL BE TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL
AND THAT YOU WILL BE TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL

CELEBRATION
SOMEDAY
SOMEDAY, SOMEDAY
CELEBRATION
