Angel lyrics

Song information

Artist: Jimi Hendrix

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 then she spread her wings, high over me
She said she's going to come back tommorow

And I said "fly on my sweet angel
Fly on through the sky
Fly on my sweet angel
Tomorrow I will be by your side"

Sure enough, this woman came unto me
Silver wings silhouet against a childs 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 takes 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!"
