Silvery Rain Lyrics

Butterflies danced on visible strings
Showing wings they borrowed from a rainbow.
And a blackbird on high sang a praise to the sky
While a light airplane sprayed the fields
With a silvery rain.
Furry backed bees with a tireless drone,
Never moan, they're happy to be working.
And a grasshopper green
Could be heard but not seen
While a light airplane sprayed the fields

With a silvery rain.

[Refrain]
Fly away, Peter, fly away, Paul,
Before there's nothing left to fly at all.
Take to the sky, higher than high,
Before the silvery rain begins to fall.

Nothing moves now but the swaying ripe corn,
Not a dawn I greeted with a bird's song.
There's a feather or two from a bird that once flew
Before a light airplane sprayed the fields
With a silvery rain.

[Refrain]
