Silver Wings and Golden Rings
It was Friday night
And both of us were lonely
We seemed to meet as lonely people do
To fill the empty space till Monday morning
I never meant to fall in love with you
You came right out and told me
About your wife back home in Houston
You were just in town on business
And never tried to lead me on
But the time had seemed just fine
Simply love you for the moment
But Heaven help me, time ran out
And now the moment's gone
Silver wings and golden rings
Are taking you today
I'll be dying on the ground
While you are flying away
Silver wings and golden rings
Are shinning on and on
While the only love
I've ever known is gone
You made me feel like
I was something special
The way no other man had ever done
I knew last night would have to last forever
'Cause there's no way from holding back the sun
Now I guess it's time for me
To drive you to the plane
To hold back all my tears
And tell you it's been nice
If you come back to town again
You know I'd love to see you
But remember I'm not strong enough
To let go of you twice
Silver wings and golden rings
Are taking you today
I'll be dying on the ground
While you are flying away
Silver wings and golden rings
Are shinning on and on
While the only love
I've ever known is gone
Silver wings and golden rings
Are taking you today
I'll be dying on the ground
While you are flying away
Silver wings and golden rings
Are shinning on and on
While the only love
I've ever known is gone
Silver wings and golden rings
Are taking you today
I'll be dying
