Peter Himmelman - 7 Angels lyrics

[Verse 1] In a sea of all the faces that I have ever seen In a crowd of all the strangers whose shoulders I have touched In an ocean of unfathomable loss and need I see seven small coffins and it's just too much I'm a mother with my children only steps away I'm a daughter dreaming peacefully of games to play I'm a candle in the window flickering with hope I'm an endless well of grief too deep to ever cope [Chorus] Veil the meaning of all I've ever known Veil the future of every seed I've sown Sail me somewhere no bu*terfly has flown Seven little angels singing “Sim Shalom” [Verse 2] I'm the middle of the night awake with fiery blaze I'm the restless souls of ancestors unhinged with rage I'm a listening ear but these are just too many names Seven little angels caught in fate's cruel cage [Chorus] Veil the meaning of all I've ever known Veil the future of every seed I've sown Sail me somewhere no bu*terfly has flown Seven little angels singing “Sim Shalom” [Refrain] Tovah u'vrachah Chayn vachesed v'rachamim v'rachamim Aleynu v'al chol Yisrael Seven little secrets life will never tell [Verse 3] I'm a mother with my children only steps away I'm a daughter dreaming peacefully of games to play I'm a candle in the window flickering with love I'm an endless well of grief too deep to rise above [Chorus] Veil the meaning of all I've ever known Veil the future of every seed I've sown Sail me somewhere no bu*terfly has flown Seven little angels singing “Sim Shalom” [Refrain] Tovah u'vrachah Chayn vachesed v'rachamim v'rachamim Aleynu v'al chol Yisrael Seven little secrets life will never tell Aleynu v'al chol everyone Seven little pairs of shoes that could not run
