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
