Escalente o Flávio aí
Something in his smile made me stop and talk a while
When I'd usually just pass by
I handed him a couple bucks and we struck a conversation up
Heaven knows just why
We talked about Jesus
And we talked about Jesus
Sweet by and by
And we talked about heaven
With a tear in his eyes
He said, angels are precious things
Love them while you got them
Try and find all those words
Way down in the bottom of your heart
Set them free
Don't wait another day
Cause sometimes angels fly away
Well, over the months
Well, I stopped to see how he was
And give him that buck or two
I told him since we spoke
That I'd give him that buck or two

Been thinking about my folks
All the years and how they flew
Started calling home, oh boy
Going back to visit
He said, my long gone son
You'll treasure every minute
Cause angels are precious things
Love them while you got them
Try and find all those words
Way down in the bottom of your heart
Set them free
Don't wait another day
Cause sometimes angels fly away
Well, I found out last week
That old Charlie died
Someone else was in his spot
With a cardboard sign
I wonder if he knew
Just how much he meant
He was heaven sent
Angels are precious things
Love them while you got them
Try and find all those words
Way down in the bottom of your heart
Set them free
Don't wait another day
Cause sometimes angels fly away
Sometimes angels fly
Sometimes angels fly
Yeah
Yeah
Sometimes angels fly away
Sometimes angels fly away
Sometimes angels fly away
Thank you!
