I looked for you in heaven,
When my time on earth was done
I donned my wings and searched till dawn
I looked, but found no one .
I looked for you in heaven,
For your tousled, sun-kissed hair
I chased the beams for what seemed days
I looked, you were not there .
I looked for you in heaven,
Often dreamed I saw your smile
I searched the stars and circled the moon
I looked for quite a while .
For you'd already fallen
You know not the pain it brings
To learn I'd lost you once again
To my soul, like rain it clings
I looked for you in heaven,
Through the sad song my heart sings
But you never were an angel
Just a boy with broken wings .
