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 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'll be by your side"
Sure enough this woman came home to me Silver wings silhouet against a 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 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'll be by your side"
