All rights reserved to SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT “Angel“ is a song by American psychedelic rock musician Jimi Hendrix, featured on his 1971 posthumous studio album The Cry of Love. Written and self-produced by Hendrix, the song was recorded for the guitarist's unreleased fourth studio album just months before he died in September 1970, and was later released as the lead single from his first posthumous studio album in the United Kingdom. Lyrics: Angel came down from heaven yesterday She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me And she told me a story yesterday About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea Then she spread her wings over me She said she's gonna come back tomorrow And I said “Fly on, my sweet Angel Fly on to the sky Fly on, my sweet Angel Tomorrow I'm gonna be by your side Sure enough, this woman came home to me Silver wings silhouetted against a child's sunrise And my Angel, she said into me “Today is the day for you to rise Take my hand, you're gonna be my man You're gonna rise“ Then she took me high over younder And I said “Fly on, my sweet Angel Fly on to the sky Fly on, my sweet Angel Forever I'm gonna be by your side
