[Verse 1]
Underneath this canopy of snow
Where fifty-seven winters
Took their toll
Where did you go?
And I believed in you
I believed in you
Like Elvis Presley
Singing psalms on a Sunday
Where did you go?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well she's gone to meet her maker
Back to where she came from
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to take her home
'Cause it's late and past
Your bedtime
Well past bedtime
[Chorus]
Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel
Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel
[Verse 2]
She took her life
Within her hands
She took her life
Within her own two hands
And no-one can tell her
What to do now
And I believed in you
I believed in you
Like Elvis Presley
Singin live from Las Vegas
Where did you go?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well she's gone to meet her maker
Back to where she came from
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to take her home
'Cause it's late and past
Your bedtime
Well past bedtime
[Chorus]
Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel
Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel
[Bridge]
Close your eyes
Go to sleep
Forever in my heart
I’ll keep you save
Forever
I’ll keep you save
[Outro]
Angel

Underneath this canopy of snow
Where fifty-seven winters

Where did you go?
And I believed in you
I believed in you
Like Elvis Presley
Singing psalms on a Sunday
Where did you go?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well she's gone to meet her maker
Back to where she came from
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
Come to take her home
'Cause it's late and past
Your bedtime
Well past bedtime
[Chorus]
Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

My angel
Fly over me

[Verse 2]
She took her life

Come to save her soul
Come to save her soul
