Paige Halliewell = A Country Song

I was born in a flurry of light
my mother and father held held me tight.
Only five hours after my first breath
they took me away in to the night

I was blessed by them
they kissed me and hugged me and coddled me tight.
I was loved by them.
My mother and father angels in the night

We landed on the church steps in the light of his orb.
A nun taking a walk saw us there.
She could not believe her eyes,
two angels come down from the sky.

I was blessed by them they kissed me and hugged me and held me tight.
I was loved by them.
My mother and father, Angels in the night.  

My mother walked over to the nun
who was in shock over what she had seen.
As she reached the woman with me in her arms
tears running down her face.
She looked the nun in the eyes  
As she stood there crying she began to speak,
“This is our baby girl,
and she needs a safe place to live.
Can you find her a home where she will be loved?
She would not be safe with us”

I was blessed by them they kissed me and hugged me and held me tight.
I was loved by them.
My mother and father, Angels in the night.

The nun saw the pain in my mother's eyes
and knew that what she was saying was true.
So she held out her hands to take me from her
a silent way of saying she understood.

And my mother cried, my father was right by our side. Then she kissed my head, and whispered a soft blessing, to me.
“Blessed be my little girl. We will always watch over you.”
So they kissed me one last time and hugged each other while they cried.
Just as the nun was about to turn around my mother stopped her, and
Reaching into her bag she pulled out a blanket, with a purple p stitched into the fabric.
“Can you promise me one more thing, make sure my babies name starts with a p.”

I was blessed by them they kissed me and hugged me and held me tight.
I was loved by them.
My mother and father, Angels in the night.

The nun broke her silence that she had vowed to
and looked my mother deep in the eyes.
“I swear to you that I will do everything you have asked for. For you are an angel sent to me.”

I was blessed by them they kissed me and hugged me and held me tight.
I was loved by them.
My mother and father, Angels in the night.
