On the wings of an Angel
I left my love
Like a twist in the tangle
When I was soaring high above
Like a night with the greatfull
Can pull me out of a dive
Like a distant candle
Feeds the will to survive

And I’ll tell ya
It’s the greatest feeling in the world
Just flying from day to day with my brown eyed girl
And as long as I can feel her slight and her thunder
Well I’d just as soon stay as go
I’d just a soon say yes as no
I‘d just as soon lay on back in the wonder
I’d just as soon stay in the back and mutter

Cause on the wings of an Angel
I heard the news
Like a swift through the middle
It’s kinda hard to bear the blues
With the power of a portrait
And the cover art on her sleeve
With the wings of an Angel
I really wanted to believe

And I’ll tell ya
It’s the greatest feeling in the world
Just flying from day to day with my brown eyed girl
And as long as I can feel her slight and her thunder
Well I’d just as soon stay as go
I’d just a soon say yes as no
I‘d just as soon lay on back in the wonder
I’d just as soon just take it for my brother

I wonder about her beauty
I wonder bout her grace
I wonder bout the slight of a smile
That sneaks up on her face
As she tells me that she loved me all her life
And the lie that came before
How hers are the wings to carry me
From sea to safety’s shore

Well I can pull myself up
And I can put myself down
I can take myself out
For a night on the town
And I can lie to myself
About the wings of an Angel
How it takes a patient soul
To fly on an Angel’s wing

And I’ll tell ya
It’s the greatest feeling in the world
Just flying from day to day with my brown eyed girl
And as long as I can feel her slight and her thunder
Well I’d just as soon stay as go
I’d just a soon say yes as no
I‘d just as soon lay on back in the wonder
I‘d just as soon lay on back in the wonder

In safe for sure
