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
And then she spread her wings high over me
She said she s going to come back tomorrow
An 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 morning came on to me
Silver-winged silhouette 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 then she took me high over yonder, Lord
An I said fly on, my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on, my sweet angel
Forever I will be by your sid
