They shine a little brighter, they feel a little more They touch your life in ways no one has ever done before They love a little stronger, they live to give their best They make our lives so blest, so why do they go so soon? The ones with souls so beautiful I heard someone say-- There must be Borrowed Angels, here in this life They come along, into this world, and make this world bright But they can't stay forever Cause they're heaven sent And sometimes, heaven needs them back again They reach a little deeper, they see what's in your soul And even when they leave you know, you'll never let them go The world's a little richer, just cause they came along Their love goes on and on, so why do they go so soon? The ones with souls so beautiful. I heard someone say-- There must be Borrowed Angels, here in this life They come along, into this world, and make this world bright They can't stay forever, cause they're heaven sent And sometimes, heaven needs them back again How else can you explain why they're here and not here to stay? I believe there must be, must be Borrowed Angels, here in this life They come along, into this world, and make this world bright But they can't stay forever, cause there heaven sent And sometimes heaven needs them back again. And sometimes heaven needs them back again.
