Lyrics
Katie?s smile was diff?rent from the other kids in class
She tried just as hard didn?t learn as fast
The kids made paper turkeys she couldn?t work the glue
Threw the bag of feathers and ran around the room
The teacher cleaned up the mess
Told the kids to gather ?round her desk
When feathers fall
It?s like an angel?s call for help
Big or small
Boys and girls you can do it yourself
Can?t we all
When feathers fall
The wind blew down a nest Billy found an injured bird
Beneath the flyin? feathers he recalled his teacher?s words
Went home and got a shoebox and made a bed of grass
Took the bird under his wing placed it in God?s hands
And when the bird finally flew
He told his mom what he learned in school
When feathers fall
It?s like an angel?s call for help
I know I?m small
But teacher says I can be do it myself
Can?t we all
When feathers fall
We all can be the angel
In someone else?s life
The one who watches over
The one who looks for signs?signs like
When feathers fall
It?s an angel?s call for help
Signs are small
But if a little boy can find one himself
Can?t we all
When feathers fall
