Willie is a genius.

If you had not have fallen

Then I would not have found you

Angel flying too close to the ground

And I patched up your broken wing and hung around for a while


Trying to keep your spirits up and your fever down

I knew someday that you would fly away

For love's the greatest healer to be found

So leave me if you need to I will still remember

Angel flying too close to the ground


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


So leave me if you need to I will still remember

Angel flying too close to the ground
