Lyrics

Like a bird without wings
That longs to be flying,
Like a motherless child
Left lonely and crying.
Like a song without words,
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me.


(George sings harmonies here)


I get so lonely, when you're away
I count every moment, I wait every day,
Until you're home again
And hug me so tight
That's when I know
Everything is alright.


Like a bird without wings
That longs to be flying,
Like a motherless child
Left lonely and crying.
Like a song without words
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me.


(George sings harmonies here)


You're my guardian angel
My light and my guide
Your hand on my shoulder
And you by my side.
You make everything beautiful,
You make me complete.
Everything in my world
I lay at your feet..


Like a church with no steeple,
Where a bell never rings.
In a town without people,
Where no voice in the choir ever sings.
If a boat on the ocean
Would be lost with no sail,
Then without your devotion
Surely all that I dreamed of would fail.


(George doing harmonies)


Like a song without words
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me


I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me

my best friend just played this for the mother son dance at her wedding and her husbands mother has 6 boys and they all danced around her while she danced with the groom. it was so touching! i don't want to copy but i'm thinking about using this song as well!
i love this song it would be geart for a mother aand son dance
I also love this song - nice Irish song - which would be perfect to use - because he is Irish and also the theme for our wedding
This song gave me goosebumps. He is an amazing singer!!
I am going to use this song as a memorial dance for my FI. His mothe passed away when he was 8 years old and we have been looking for the perfect song to play and I know i just found it.
Beautiful Celtic tradition.
This song is amazing. I cried while I was listening to it, it made me thnk back to when I was a little girl. I have always invisioned dancing not only with my dad at my wedding but also my gradfathers. Its been a year since one of my grandfathers passed away and the other one is not in good health so half of that dream is now gone but this is a perfect song to play in memory of both him and my grandmother who passed away 10 years ago.
I love this song. My mother passed away 2 years again. I plan on dedicating it to her.
this song is perfect for a memorial song for our son we recently loss. he wasnt even able to see his parents get married because he passed on before he was born. this will be perfect because he is our guardian angel for eternity.
I'm going to use this song as a memorial to my grandfather and my stepdad who have both passed. Such an incredibley moving song.
This is the most beautiful song I've heard in a long time. Our wedding is Celtic themed...I will be walking down the isle to my "husband" while this is playing. It's perfect!!
I love this song!!!!
I absolutely love this song! I've been wanting to tie in my heritage into the wedding. And this would be a wonderful way of doing this. I cant wait to play this (and others) at my wedding. These artists are so talented its amazing to be able to take part in hearing this song and the words it tells!
we are both of celtic decent. this song will be perfect
well dude its a awesome song keep it up dear :)
