Angel of Mercy

Angel of mercy

Come sit by my side

Have you some mercy

Mercy for me

I’m destined for sadness

Heartache and pain

She’s withdrawn her love

And said, for me

To do the same

But my heart, you see

Has a mind of its’ own

It keeps on loving

Though her love has moved on

It cries and it bleeds

Through the cold and the rain

Never knowing its’ journey

Is one taken in vain



So have you some mercy

A little to spare

It could sure use some warmth

From someone who cares

I’m not asking for much

Just something to mend the break

For I’m not quite sure

How much more it can take

It’s losing its’ strength

Will and might

And may never recover

From when she left

That night



So angel of mercy

I plead, beg and cry

Can you spare me some mercy

Lest my heart should die
