|
It was Friday night |
|
And both of us were lonely |
|
We seemed to meet as lonely people do |
|
I filled that empty space till Monday morning |
|
I never meant ton fall in love with you |
|
Came right out and told me |
|
About your wife back home in Houston |
|
You were just in town on business |
|
You never tried to lead me on |
|
Time had seemed just fine |
|
Simply love you for the moment |
|
Heaven help me, time ran out |
|
Now the moment's gone |
|
Silver wings and golden rings |
|
Are taking you today |
|
And 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 ever done |
|
And I knew last night |
|
Would have to last forever |
|
It's just no way of holding back the sun |
|
And now I guess it's time for me |
|
To drive you to the airport |
|
Hold back all my tears |
|
Tell you it's been nice |
|
If you come back to town again |
|
Know I love to see you |
|
Remember I'm not strong enough |
|
To let go of you twice |
|
Silver wings and golden rings |
|
Are taking you today |
|
And 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 |
|
And 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 |
