Lyrics

Silver Wings

[Chorus]

Silver wings shining in the sunlight

Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight

They're taking you away, leaving me lonely

Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

[Verse]

"Don't leave me," I cry

Don't take that airplane ride

But you locked me out of your mind

Left me standing here behind

[Chorus]

Silver wings shining in the sunlight

Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight

And they're taking you away, leaving me lonely

Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]

"Don't leave me," I cry

Don't take that airplane ride

But you locked me out of your mind

Left me standing here behind

[Chorus]

Silver wings shining in the sunlight

Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight

And they're taking you away, leaving me lonely

Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

[Verse]

"Don't leave me," I cry

Don't take that airplane ride

But you locked me out of your mind

Left me standing here behind

[Chorus]

Silver wings shining in the sunlight

Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight

And they're taking you away, leaving me lonely

Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Silver wings slowly fading out of sight
