There was a time when I would have followed you To the end of the earth I was willing to share it all with you The love, the hurt I've seen you when your dreams were falling in the dust But I never stopped believing in you I always thought our love was strong enough One you could hold on to
[Chorus:] You never see it coming You just let it fly On silent wings, silent wings You can't hide what you feel inside And the fire has left your eyes On silent wings
I see us in our dreams and we're dancing I can almost hear the song But the prayers, they go unanswered But we both know, we're just hanging on I feel ashamed, but I'll never know the reason why The rug was pulled so gently from under my feet I only know that something good has died Between you and me, oh it's just a memory
[Chorus]
You never see it coming You just go separate ways On silent wings, silent wings There's no more promises to break Or our love has slipped away On silent wings You never see it coming But you know it has to end On silent wings, silent wings I will never be the same again I feel the whisper of the wind On silent wings
