High Flying Angel Lyrics - Phil Collins

While the city starts to sleep 

She's watching over you 

Smoke hangs on the downtown skyline 

Moon pushes through 

But some people's on fire tonight 

Wind rushing round their feet 

Someone's gonna sleep well tonight 

Word is on the street 

So high flyer, high flyer 

Fly high tonight 

Fly angel, fly higher 

Fly here tonight

It's a tribal thing we're seeing 

War paint on the face 

A question of territory, pride and space 

People strutting and feathers flying 

It's a sorry scene 

Someone's sleeping well tonight 

Word is on the street 

So high flyer, high flyer 

Fly high tonight 

Fly angel, fly higher 

Fly here tonight 

Brother, my brother 

Don't let me down again 

Mother oh mother 

Wipe away your tears again

High flying bird embraced him 

Held him to her breast 

Soft feathers brushed his face 

Finally came to rest 

Gently rocking him to and fro 

He quietly went to sleep 

Someone's found a place of peace tonight 

Word is on the street 

So high flyer, high flyer 

Fly high tonight 

Fly angel, fly higher 

Fly away tonight 

High flyer, high flyer 

Fly high tonight 

Fly angel, fly higher 

Fly safe tonight
