Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough for afternoon tea
And she told me a story' yesterday
About the love between the moon and the deep blue sea
And when it was time for her to go' she spread her wings out over me
And 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'll be by my side

And sure enough this morning comes to me
With silver wings silhouette against the child's sunrise
And as a bluebirds and the sparrows envy me
She says "I'm lovin you little boy' and today you shall fly"
She kissed me once' and the feeling was so good she made me cry
And now we fly together
And I said fly on my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on my sweet angel
Together we shall always be alive
