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 
But they can't stay forever, cause there heaven sent 
And sometimes heaven needs them back again. 
And sometimes heaven needs them back again.
