Angel came down from heaven yesterday She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me And she told me a story yesterday About the sweet love between the Moon and the deep blue sea
And then she spread her wings High over me She said she's gonna 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
Sure enough this morning came unto me Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise And my angel, she said unto me Today is the day for you to rise
Take my hand, you're gonna be my man You're gonna rise And then she took me High over yonder, oh
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
