Silver Wings

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
Don't leave me I cried don't take that airplane ride
But you locked me out of your mind and left me standing here behind
Silver wings shining in the sunlight...
[ piano ]
Don't leave me I cried...
Silver wings shining in the sunlight...
Silver wings shining in the sunlight...
