Ángel
Beth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you had not've fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
But I patched up your broken wings
And hung around a while
Kept your spirits up and your fever down

I knew someday that you would fly away
Cause love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to, but I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

If you had not've fallen,
Than I would not've found you
Angel flying too close to the ground
I patched up your broken wings
And hung around a while
Kept your spirits up and your fever down

I know someday that you will fly away
Cause love's the greatest healer to be found
So leave me if you need to, but I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

So fly, fly on past the speed of sound
Oh, rather see you up than see you down
So leave me if you need to and I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground





So leave me if you need to and I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Beth Rowley Feat. Duke Special's song "Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground" portray a heart-touching message of love and loss. The opening lines suggest that the singer would never have met the person they're addressing in the song if they hadn't been in a vulnerable position first. The reference to the "angel" flying too close to the ground suggests that they were struggling, perhaps with mental health or addiction issues, and were in need of help. The singer seems to have taken on the role of a caregiver, patching up the angel's broken wings and keeping their spirits up.


Despite their efforts to help, the singer knew that the angel would eventually fly away, perhaps in pursuit of personal growth and self-discovery. However, they express that even if the angel leaves, they will always remember them as a symbol of hope and healing. The lines "So fly, fly on past the speed of sound / Oh, rather see you up than see you down" seem to indicate that the singer wants nothing but the best for the person they care for, even if it means they have to say goodbye.


Overall, the song can be interpreted as a bittersweet tribute to an individual who has overcome struggles and hardships. It highlights the power of love and the impact that one person can have on another's life.

If you had not've fallen
If you hadn't suffered adversity


Then I would not have found you
I wouldn't have discovered you


Angel flying too close to the ground
You are like an angel, but at risk of danger

I helped you heal from your wounds

I stayed close to you

You can go, but I'll hold onto our memories


Angel flying too close to the ground
You were always at risk, but you still flew

These live filmed videos are amazing! It’s so candid and doesn’t take away from the recipes at all. Would love to see another savory dish next week ♥️♥️♥️

My whole family loves this recipe!! It's become a big hit. So simple yet so delicious. The best vegetarian dish in my house, next to the equally delicious Cream of Celery soup that my oldest son has now learned to make on his own. Thank you so much! :)
