[Verse 1]
When did you leave heaven ?
How could they let you go ?
How's every thing in heaven ?
I'd like to know

[Verse 2]
Why did you trade heaven ?
For all these earthly things ?
Where on earth you hide halo ?
Where did you lose your wings ?

[Verse 3]
Have they missed you ?
Can you get back in ?
If I kiss you would it be a sin ?
I am only human but you are so divine
When did you leave heaven angel mine ?

Bob Dylan (born Robert Zimmerman May 24, 1941), is an American singer-songwriter, writer, and artist who has influenced popular music and culture for more than five decades. Dylan has especially played a critical role in the American folk music revival.

Dylan’s songs are built from myriad political, social, philosophical and literary influences. Many of his anti-war and civil-rights-influenced songs set social unrest, as journalists widely named him the “spokesman for his generation” in the 1960s.

The musician has a signature change in voice and style in many different albums of his throughout the decades. He has notably explored and experimented with the genres of folk, rap, blues, and rock.
