Silver wings
Shinning in the sunlight,
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight.
Their taking you away, leaving me lonely,
Silver wings
Slowly fading from sight.

Don't leave me I cry,
Don't take that airplane ride.
But you locked me out of your life.
Left me standing here behind.

Silver wings
Shining in the sunlight,
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight.
Their taking you away, leaving me lonely.
Silver wings
Slowly fading from sight.

Don't leave me I cry,
Don't take that airplane ride.
But you locked me out of your life.
Left me standing here behind.

Silver wings
Shining in the sunlight,
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight,
They're taking you away, leaving me lonely.
Silver wings
Slowly fading from sight.
Slowly fading from sight.
