If you had not've fallen
I would not've found you
Angel flying too close to the ground

I patched up your broken wing
And hung around awhile
Trying to keep your spirits up
And your fever down

I knew someday that you would fly away
Love is the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

So fly on, fly on past, the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up than see you down
So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground
Leave me if you need to, I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground
