If you would not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground

And I patched up your broken wings
And hung around for a while
Trying to keep your spirits up
And your fever down

And 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
