| 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' to 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 |
