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,
then she spread her wings high over me, and she said 'come, 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'
sure enough
this woman came unto me
silver wings, silhouette against a childs sunrise
and my angel said unto me
today is the day for you to rise
take my hand,you're gonna be my man, gonna rise, then she took me over yonder
and i said, "fly on my sweet angel, fly on through the sky, fly on my sweet angel, forever i'm gonna be by your side"
