I heard she sang a lullaby
I heard she sang it from her heart
When I found out thought I would die
Because that lullaby was mine

I heard she sealed it with a kiss
and gently kissed her cherry lips
I found that so hard to believe
Because her kiss belonged to me

How could an angel break my heart
Why didn't she catch my falling star
I wish I didn't wish so hard
Maybe I wished our love apart
How could an angel break my heart

I heard her face was white as rain
Soft as a rose that blooms in May
He keeps her picture in a frame
And when he sleeps he calls her name

I wonder if she makes him smile
The way she used to smile at me
I hope he doesn't make her laugh
Because her laugh belongs to me

How could an angel break my heart
Why didn't she catch my falling star
I wish I didn't wish so hard
Maybe I wish our love apart
How could an angel break my heart

Oh my soul is dying, it's crying
I'm trying to understand
Please help me
How could an angel break my heart
Why didn't he catch my falling star
I wish I didn't wish so hard
Maybe I wished our love apart
How could an angel break my heart
How could an angel break my heart
