Analysis of Soul of an Angel ( Made in Heaven)



The grandfather clock gradually pealed
two o’clock, as the hourglass sifted rapidly
out of time.
You arouse from a profound slumber,
as the majestic time piece indicated six
past five.
Your eyes glistened radiantly in the
lucid night, like the soul of an angel
that watches over you.
The man in your dreams gave you seven
lovely roses, as your heart melts down
with sentimental emotions.
When the lady in white commences
the angel song at nine, your smile
illuminates beautifully across the chamber.
As the four sandstones stand alone,
they summon your soul to wish you well on
your quest.
Which will lead you down one certain
path, guiding you to your destiny.
