An angel has flown away from me
Should’ve clipped her wings, instead of setting her free
Thought I could go on and live on my own
But now I realize she’s the only real love I’ve known.
An angel has flown away from me
And now I’m left crying in drunken misery
I shouldn’t have let her go that night
But an angel like her deserved freedom from her plight
An angel has flown away from me
She’s fluttering her wings, flying away to see
The harsh world outside, without me by her side
Take care my angel, spread your wings out wide
I know I’ll get by, somehow someday
Even without my angel, I’ll still live for another day
Wherever she is, I hope she’s happy and free
I just hope she knows I’ll always be here if she needs me.
