Lyrics

Angel came down from Heaven yesterday
Just bare with me just long enough to rescue me
And she told me 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 saiy 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 gonna be my man, you're gonna rise
And then she take me high over yonder
And I say fly on, my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on, my sweet angel
Forever I'm gonna be by your side
And I say fly on, my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on, my sweet angel
Forever I'm gonna be by your side
I say fly on, my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on, my sweet angel
Forever I'm gonna be by your side
