[English]

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 spread her wings high over me

She said she's gonna 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 morning came unto me

Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise

And my angel, she said unto me

"Today is the day for you to rise

Take my hand, you're gonna be my man

You're gonna rise"

And then 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"
