Lyrics:

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 the she spread her wings high over me
She said 'I shall return tomorrow'

And I said 'fly on my sweet angel,
Fly on through the sky,
Fly on my sweet angel,
Tomorrow I'm gon' be by your side'

And sure enough this morning came up to me,
Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise,
And my angel she said to me,
Today is the day for you to rise,
Take my hand, you're gonna be my man,
And 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.'
