Angel Child (Live at Goudse Schouwburg)

This is the story of a young prince

Who never got to taste the sweet things

He never got to spread his wild wings

Or had a chance to fly

This is a story 'bout a heartache

The kind that makes a father's hand shake

The kind that makes a mother's heart break

Makes them question why

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

We had our time of no tomorrow

There was no pain, no sorrow

Now it feels every smile was borrowed

My body yearning for the bottle

I hope that as we're growing older

The weight gets lighter on our shoulders

Since you're gone your mother's colder

And all that I can do is hold her

Ooh, Gabriel, my angel child

This is no goodbye

'Cause when I close my eyes

I keep the dream alive

Ooh, I see you in the sky tonight

And I watch your starlight go

You never leave, so I'll never let you go

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Maybe someday we'll be there with you

Amongst the stars of red and bright blue

But until then shine on your mother

Be a guiding light for your big brother

Oh, every smile is worth the crying

And every fight is worth the fighting

My little star, you just keep on shining

Ooh, Gabriel, my angel child

This is no goodbye

'Cause when I close my eyes

I keep the dream alive

Ooh, I see you in the sky tonight

And I watch your starlight go

You never leave, so I'll never let you go

This is no goodbye

My young prince, my angel child

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah

Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
