Andrew Lloyd Webber - One More Angel lyrics

Father, we've something to tell you, a story of our time A tragic but inspiring tale of manhood in its prime You know you had a dozen sons, well, now that's not quite true But feel no sorrow, do not grieve, he would not want you to There's one more angel in Heaven There's one more star in the sky Joseph, we'll never forget you It's tough but we're gonna get by There's one less place at our table There's one more tear in my eye But Joseph, the things that you stood for Like truth and light never die When I think of his last great battle A lump comes to my throat It takes a man who knows no fear To wrastle with a goat His blood-stained coat is tribute to His final sacrifice His body may be past its peak But his soul's in paradise So long, little Joe How do you [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] There's one less place at our table There's one more tear in my eye But Joseph, the things that you stood for Like truth and light never die Carve his name with pride and courage Let no tear be shed If he had not laid down his life We all would now be dead
