The Hush of Angel Wings

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a quiet in the morning Where a voice used to be A chair pulled to the table And a cup of golden tea She was shelter in the storm clouds She was steady, she was strong [Chorus] But love don't end with leaving It just changes how it sings I can feel her in the silence Like the hush of angel wings When the weight gets hard to carry And the nights feel way too long I still hear her saying, baby You were built to carry on [Verse 2] Dakota, she was everything The first call on the phone The arms that held you gently So you'd never feel alone Barbara gave you laughter And a faith that wouldn't break February took her home But not the love she'd make [Chorus] 'Cause love don't end with leaving It just changes how it sings I can feel her in the silence Like the hush of angel wings When the weight gets hard to carry And the nights feel way too long I still hear her saying, baby You were built to carry on [Bridge] She's walking streets of glory She's dancing, finally free And every prayer you whisper She's listening faithfully [Verse 3] So Dakota Miller, lift your eyes Through every tear you cry Your mama's love is woven deep It will not say goodbye She was your best friend on this earth And heaven knows it too The greatest thing that Barbara did Was pour her heart in you [Chorus] 'Cause love don't end with leaving It just changes how it sings I can feel her in the silence Like the hush of angel wings When the weight gets hard to carry And the nights feel way too long I still hear her saying, baby You were built to carry on [Outro] So rest now, Dakota Your mama's love lives on Wrapped around you like a hymn That never ends its song
