Iced Earth - Watching Over Me Lyrics






I had a friend many years ago
One tragic night he died
The saddest time of my life
For weeks and weeks I cried
Through the anger and through the tears
I've felt his spirit through the years
I'd swear, He's watching me
Guiding me through hard times

I feel it once again
It's overwhelming me
His spirit's like the wind
The angel guarding me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me

We shared dreams like all best friends
Blood brothers at the age of ten
We lived reckless, he paid the price
But why? Why did he have to die?
It still hurts me to this day
Am I selfish for feeling this way?
I know he's an angel now
Together we'll be someday

I feel it once again
It's overwhelming me
His spirit's like the wind
The angel guarding me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me
Oh, I know, oh, I know
He's watching over me

    It's been 20 years since my father has passed. Time really does go by in a blink. I was only 6 years old then and didn't understand anything at all. As time went on, I moved cities. I went from being angry with him to turn my back on him, to the grief of why didn't I do anything. But now I am at peace and visit his grave whenever I'm back in town and had recently rekindled with that side of the family. So much lost time to make up. There isn't a day that I don't think of him...from graduating high school and college to getting married and our first house this year, I'd do anything to have had him there. But this song helped me realize one thing...he never left. He's been there all along. Miss you, Dave. Can't wait to have a beer and catch up in Heaven.

    And when you have hot coals underneath your chair yet and you look down and you see the wheel with a big red glowing coal on The Chariot wheel there's a lot more to the dream but in the dream it was like I felt if words can describe Felicity

  29. W.... W....

    I absolutely love that song it reminds me of the dream I had in the year maybe 2002 I rode two different chariots in this dream vision the first Chariot I was on I was with the ox man lion and eagle their heads were connected to one body their hands turned and looked at me one by one as if they were swiveled on an axis and their wings raised up and it sounded like water when their wings were raised up there so much more to the dream it had two parts to it I won't give it all away yet there's so much more to the dream but I know that good and evil both exist and I believe in the Book of Genesis all the way through to the Book of Revelation and I believe in all the prophets of the Bible

    I had a friend many years ago
    One tragic night he died
    The saddest time of my life
    For weeks and weeks I cried
    Through the anger and through the tears
    I've felt his spirit through the years
    I'd swear, He's watching me
    Guiding me through hard times
    I feel it once again
    It's overwhelming me
    His spirit's like the wind
    The angel guarding me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    We shared dreams like all best friends
    Blood brothers at the age of ten
    We lived reckless, he paid the price (why)
    Why did he have to die?
    It still hurts me to this day
    Am I selfish for feeling this way?
    I know he's an angel now
    Together we'll be someday
    I feel it once again
    It's overwhelming me
    His spirit's like the wind
    The angel guarding me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    I feel it once again
    It's overwhelming me
    His spirit's like the wind
    The angel guarding me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    I feel it once again
    It's overwhelming me
    His spirit's like the wind (It's overwhelming me)
    The angel guarding me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know
    He's watching over me
    Oh, I know, oh, I know (His spirit's like the wind)
    He's watching over me (Oh, I know, oh, I know)
