Analysis of On The Tips Of White Angel's Wings



You gave an TV interview
The day before you passed on
Into the Heavens
On the very wings of Angels you now ride

As once you walked the wings
 Of the mighty airplanes
Down here on earth

But that fateful day
That was to come
Your time had so came

As once again your spirit does take a lift
 And soars way up so high
On the very tips of white Angel's wings

Never again to have to worry
About coming back down here to earth
Dying in an awful fiery crash or way.
