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
<Interlude>
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"
Fly on my sweet angel
fly on through the sky
Fly on my sweet angel
forever I will be by your side
