ANGEL FIRE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I never knew the dusk could seem so sad,
\nAn empty aching in my soul.
\nIn this bright hour I speak your name in the wind,
\nThe shining world outlasts us all.<\/p>\n

Even the mountains seem to know you\u2019re gone,
\nThe foothills shimmer where they stand.
\nThe sky is still and much too beautiful,
\nAnd I am missing you again.<\/p>\n

Lift me over the San Gabriels,
\nLeaning into the southern sky,
\nThe foothills burning in the afterglow,
\nAnd angel fire passing by.<\/p>\n

I think of songs I might have sung to you,
\nThe love I wanted you to hear.
\nEvery time the blazing sun goes down
\nAnother promise disappears.<\/p>\n

I never knew the dusk could break my heart,
\nSo much longing folding in.
\nI\u2019d give years away to have you here,
\nYou know I can\u2019t lose you again.<\/p>\n

Lift me over the San Gabriels,
\nLeaning into the southern sky.
\nA flight of angels must be in the wind,
\nI know they\u2019ll pass this way tonight.<\/p>\n

Help me remember the San Gabriels
\nThe foothills burning in the light
\nLet my heart rise up to where you are
\nI long to be with you tonight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Having a hard couple of days – this song, by Fernando Ortega<\/a> always speaks to my soul.<\/p>\n
