Silver Wings

Feeling lost and lonely
Never felt so blue
I'm singing my old lullaby
My farewell song to you

I watch those shining silver wings
Go fading out of sight
And leave behind a troubled mind
And a troubled heart, tonight

Silver wings, those silver wings
Have flown my love away
Far across the mountain ranges
Somewhere, there, to stay

God knows how I miss that cheery smile
And eyes, so bright
As I sing my song while riding along
The homeward trail, tonight

I'd give the world
If only I could ride, just once again
'Neath the twinkling stars with my old guitar
And sing our old refrain

The valley seems to answer back
My lonely lullaby
And you'll be gone forever
Dear, I'll love you till I die

Silver wings, those silver wings
Have flown my love away
Far across the mountain ranges
Somewhere, there, to stay

God knows how I miss that cheery smile
And eyes, so bright
As I sing my song while riding along
The homeward trail, tonight
