"Silver Wings" (written by Merle Haggard)

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away, and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

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

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away, and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away, and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight


Slowly fading out of sight
Slowly fading out of sight
