"Angel" lyrics - FIONA APPLE

FIONA APPLE
"Angel"

Angel come on down from heaven yesterday
Stayed with me just long enough to rescue me
And she told me a story yesterday
About the love between the moon and the deep blue sea

Then she spread her wings high above me
And she said she gonna come back tomorrow

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

Sure enough, this woman came home to me
Silver wings silhouette against a child's own prize
Oh angel, she said unto me
Today is the day for you to rise

Take my hand, take my hand
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 right by your side
