This song has sat in my 'song graveyard' for 3 or 4 years. @shauna161 helped me find a new angle for it and for now it's finished. Another song about letting go to people who are gone.
Fly away my guardian angel
It's a new day
And if you need new wings
To send you on your way
I’ll help you find them
'Cause they were always there before
Take your place among the stars
And find a better home
It’s so hard lettin’ go
But I’ll be ready now to find my way and go alone
But I’ll be ready now to find my way and go alone
And though whenever I get lonely, I’ll just look into the sky
And I say a prayer for you
And I put the doubts to sleep
Never wonder why the prayer remains
Un ans wered.
I appreciate the comfort
Of worn-in memories
But now it’s time to go
And move along myself into the darkness unafraid
Though every night I'm lonely, and I keep lookin' to the light
And I say a prayer for you
And I put the doubts to sleep
Never wonder why the prayer remains
Un ans wered.
So when I finally get my way and over you
Won't you send a sign and tell me that your never far behind
And i'll say a
a prayer for you
And I put the doubts to sleep
Never wonder why the prayer remains

OOOH I feel so lucky to have been a part of this! I love where it landed - so heart-centric and beautiful!

Pretty and sweet. Got a James Taylor vibe. Well done!

The chorus " A prayer for you and I put the doubts to sleep..." is really pretty and touching . Nice song, nice collab.

Some things take their time, but finally they find their way... like this song... It was definitely worth waiting for it. Lovely guitar work and tune. Great lyrics with awesome lines like "Never wonder why the prayer remains
