Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough to rescue he
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
“today is the day for you to rise,
Take my hand, you’re gonna be my man,
You’re gonna rise”
And she took 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”

She’s just a nigh bird flyin’ throught the night
Fly on
She’s just a night bird making a midnight, midnight flight
Sail on, sail on
Well, she’s flyin’ down to me
But, ’til tomorrow got to set her free
Set her free

So all we got, baby, is one precious night
All we got is one precious night
Throw your blues and shoes and things
And lay it down under the bed
Just wrap me up in your beautiful wings,
Better hear what I say, yeah
Oh, carry me home
Please take me through your dreams
Inside your world I want to be

Until tomorrow no tears will be shed
Hold on ’til the sun gets out of bed
Hold on, hold on, baby
Fly on

I get stoned
I can’t go home
I’m calling long distance on
a public saxophone
My head is achin’
Lord my mind is breakin’
Feel I got run over by
Captain Coconut and his
dog named Rover
Gotta keep on movin’
Gotta keep on movin’
To understand both sides of the sky
you gotta keep on groovin’ yeah,
Good groovin’
‘Cause you got your God and so do I
We gotta keep on lovin’
Good, good, good, lovin’
Make love on my dyin’ bed
We gotta stop smokin’, stop, stop,
I mean cigarette smokin’
Or else I cough myself to death
And to make love to you baby,
I wouldn’t even have the breath
we gotta keep movin’
keep on groovin’
Understand both sides of the sky
Keep on movin’
Keep on movin’
You got your God and so do I.

People, people
Here me go
You know what it means to be left alone
Yeah, people hear me people
Do you know what it means to be left alone?
Not even a love to call your own
A little understandin’
Lord that’s all in the world I need
Understandin’ and a little bit of lovin’ baby
That’s all in the world I need
A misunderstanding of a no good woman
Yeah, lord they’ve both caused my heart to bleed
Yeah

Every mornin’
I can hear out of my window
The blues come winning
I can hear the blues call my name baby
Every mornin’
Every mornin’
You can hear the willows weep and moan for me
Lord now, every mornin’ you can hear the willows weep and moan for me
My little girl has left me
That’s what caused my heart to bleed
That’s all that caused my heart to bleed
Bleeding heart
Lord that’s too bad I have a bleeding heart
Please come back home to me baby
