Angel came down from heaven yesterday
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
Then she spread her wings high over me
She said,'I'll come back again to see you 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 woman came home to me
Silver wings silhouetted 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 mind,
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
