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
