How High Can Angels Fly (Words by Evelyn Hurley; Music by Larry Long)

Unpublished

How high can angels fly with folded wings
The ancient turtle weeps and slip away
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

The busy days are filled with empty things
The sky is hid behind a midst of grey
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

How high can angels fly with folded wings
The ancient turtle weeps and slip away
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

No joy is heard in bells that never ring
We waste the words of love we never say
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

How high can angels fly with folded wings
The ancient turtle weeps and slip away
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

The night hangs the stars and makes them cling
To lovers dreaming dreams of magic rays
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings

How high can angels fly with folded wings
The ancient turtle weeps and slip away
How many hearts hold songs and never sing
How high can angels fly with folded wings
