Silver Wings Songtext

von Merle Haggard

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 no airplane ride."
But you locked me out of your mind,
An' 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 out of sight.
Instrumental Break.

"Don't leave me," I cried.
" Don't take no airplane ride."
But you locked me out of your mind,
An' 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 out of sight.
Slowly fading out of sight. (Fading out of sight.)

Slowly fading out of sight. (Silver wings.)

Slowly fading out of sight.

To fade.
