Angels Blush
Basia Lyrics

There is a day when the angels blush
There are rare moments in time when celestial beings pause in awe and admiration of the world around them.

So overjoyed with the world they see
The angels are filled with happiness and delight at the beautiful and good things they witness on Earth.

They finally rest for awhile
In these moments of contemplation, the angels take a break from their divine responsibilities to observe and appreciate the world.

And may even smile
The angels, who are typically solemn and serious, are moved by the wondrous things they observe to show a rare, fleeting expression of joy.

Observing the Earth in glee
The angels watch over the Earth with great delight and pleasure, taking in all its wonders.

Angels blush
The transcendent beings feel a deep, powerful emotion that causes them to turn red in the face, overcome with wonder and joy.

In the Christmas glow of love
This feeling of awe and happiness is especially strong during the holiday season, when people come together to share their love and kindness with one another.

Where does it come from this time of peace?
We are left to wonder about the source of the peaceful, joyous feeling that is so strong during the holiday season and that apparently affects even the angels.

Why do we all wish each other well?
People feel a sudden desire to be kind and generous to one another during the holiday season, extending wishes of goodwill to friends, family, and even strangers.

Must be divine intervention
The subtle but pervasive feeling of love and harmony that seems to envelop us during this time of year must have some otherworldly origin.

Melting the ice
This feeling of peace and love has the power to thaw hearts that have grown cold or distant, bringing people closer together.

Of hearts under heaven's spell
People seem to be enchanted or captivated by the transcendent power that fills the air during the holiday season, a force that draws them together and inspires them to be kind and loving to one another.

There is warmth despite December
In spite of the cold, gray darkness of wintertime, people find comfort in the warmth of human connection and the love they share with others.

Our little games we can't remember
The petty disagreements and animosities that normally arise between people seem insignificant during this time of year, as everyone focuses on spreading love and joy.

There is much more that matters today
During the holiday season, people are reminded of the things that truly matter in life: love, friendship, kindness, and generosity.

If only we could live like this everyday of the year
The songwriter expresses a wish that this holiday spirit of love and kindness could be a guiding force in our lives every day, inspiring us to be better people and to spread love and light wherever we go.
