I had a friend many years ago

One tragic night he died

The saddest time of my life

For weeks and weeks I cried

Through the anger and through the tears

I've felt his spirit through the years

I'd swear, He's watching over me

Guiding me through hard times



(Chorus)

I feel it once again

It's overwhelming me

His spirit's like the wind

The angel guarding me

Oh, I know, oh, I know

He's watching over me

Oh, I know, oh, I know

He's watching over me



We shred dreams like all bests friends

Blood brothers at the age of ten

We lived reckless, he paid the price

But why? Why did he have to die?

It still hurts me to this day

Am I selfish for feeling this way?

I know he's an angel now

Together we'll be someday



I feel it once again

It's overwhelming me

His spirit's like the wind

The angel guarding me

Oh, I know, oh, I know

He's watching over me

Oh, I know, oh, I know

He's watching over me
