Текст песни One More Angel In Heaven (from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat) - The New Musical Cast

Father, we've something to tell you
A story of our time
A tragic but inspiring tale
Of manhood in its prime
You know you had a dozen sons
Well, now that's not quite true
But feel no sorrow, do not grieve
He would not want you to
There's one more angel in heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Joseph, we'll never forget you
It's tough, but we're gonna get by
There's one less place at our table
There's one more tear in my eye
But, Joseph, the things that you stood for
Like truth and life never die
When I think of his last great battle
A lump comes to my throat
It takes a man who knows not fear
To wrestle with a goat
His blood-stained coat is tribute to
His final sacrifice
His body may be past its peak
But his soul's in paradise
So long, Little Joe
Adios, buckaroo
Ten-four, good buddy
There's one less place at our table
There's one more tear in my eye
But, Joseph, the things that you stood for
Like truth and life never die
Carve his name with pride and courage
Let no tear be shed
If he had not laid down his life
We all would now be dead
