(Yay! I just want to specially thank Donna for writing such a beautiful duet with me, you truly are a comforting spirit to us all! (sends angel hugs to Donna) )



When Angels Cry
By: Donna Smith and Noah Eaton
2/5/04

A little girl dreams for a yellow dove
to fly into her room,
to lift her to the golden gatekeeper,
send letters of hope to God soon

A little boy imagines a unicorn,
where he holds a sense of awe,
he wants heaven to become his friend,
he dreams of holding the hand of God

Unless you have something to give,
they can see freedom isn't free,
so when we can't all donate,
Lord, the angels must be crying.



A mother’s heart cries out for her children
alone, somewhere out there,
her soul burdened with worries and sorrow
she prays to God through tears.

A father provides for his family
struggles on roads of strife,
he gives thanks to the heavens above us
for blessing him through life.

When the world is filled with suffering,
and darkness fills the skies,
when peace no longer whispers on the winds,
Lord, you can hear the angels cry.





"You'll find something that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20

You've both matched the talents of each other, and then surpassed that with the underlying message.  Well done, the both of you!

Thank you all so very much for reading our offering.  It is always such a joy writing duets with Noah.     
Noah sweetie, you have a way of making my words even better when they blend with yours and I look forward to the next duet we do together. Maybe I will come across the original one that we lost and we can finish it some day, that would be fantastic! It might take me awhile to find it printed somewhere safely awaiting the right moment...at least I hope anyhow!  lol...

Again my thanks to all and to my duet buddie, Hugs and peace.

It's better than I could have planned..
