Angel came down from heaven yesterday

stayed with me long enough to rescue me

And she told me a story yesterday

about the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea

Then she spread her wings high over me

she said she's goin' now, come back tomorrow

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side"

Fly away, high away, fly away

Sure enough this morning came unto me

silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise

And my angel she said unto me

Today's the day for you to rise

Take my hand, you're gonna be my man, you're gonna rise

Then she took me high over yonder

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel forever I will be by your side"

And I said, "Fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky

Fly on my sweet angel forever I will be by your side"

Fly away, come back another day
