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 --- Silver Wings and Golden Rings - Billie Jo Spears
