They shine a little brighter, they feel a little more
They touch your life in ways no one has ever done before
They love a little stronger, they live to give their best

They make our lives so blest, so why do they go so soon?
The ones with souls so beautiful, I heard someone say

There must be borrowed angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
But they can`t stay forever `cause they`re heaven sent
And sometimes, heaven needs them back again

They reach a little deeper, they see what`s in your soul
And even when they leave you know, you`ll never let them go
The world`s a little richer, just `cause they came along

Their love goes on and on, so why do they go so soon?
The ones with souls so beautiful, I heard someone say

There must be borrowed angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
They can`t stay forever, `cause they`re heaven sent
And sometimes, heaven needs them back again

How else can you explain why they`re here and not here to stay?
I believe there must be, must be

Borrowed angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
They can`t stay forever, `cause there heaven sent
And sometimes heaven needs them back again

And sometimes heaven needs them back again
