Angel Lyrics

An 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 spreads her wings high over me
and said i'm goin to come back tomorrow
and i said fly on my sweet angel
fly on to the sky
fly on my sweet angel
tomorrow i'll be there by your side

sure enough this morning came unto me
a silver wing silhouette against the child sunrise
and my angel she said unto me
boy today is the day for you to rise
take my hand you're gonna be my man and you're gonna rise
and she took me right over yonder

and i said fly on my sweet angel
fly on to the sky
fly on my sweet angel
tomorrow i'll be there by your side
yeah, tomorrow i'll be there by your side
