The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You woke up this morning
With red and teary eyes
There's a hole inside your broken soul
You weren't ready to let go
You had dreams about her
Where you still can see her smile
And the memories you both have shared
Will make you happy for a little while
Oh, why did you have to go a place
Where I couldn't follow?
Oh, why did you have to go a place
Where I couldn't follow?
So don't, don't wake me up
'Cause I only see her in my dreams
When I fall asleep
She broke her wings
Can no more fly
There's a part of the universe
A shining star upon the sky
She's looking down upon you
She wants to say that she is fine
Maybe she's there at night
And she whispers: Darling, it will be alright
Oh, but why did you have to go a place
Where I couldn't follow?
Oh, why did you have to go a place
Where I couldn't follow?
So don't, don't wake me up
'Cause I only see her in my dreams
When I fall asleep
'Cause I only see her in my dreams
When I fall asleep
Oh, heaven's got a new angel
Got a new angel
Oh, heaven's got a new angel
Got a new angel
