[Verse 1: Rosanne Cash]
Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading from sight

[Chorus: Rosanne Cash and Rufus Wainwright]
"Don't leave me," I cry
"Don't leave me," I cry
Don't take that airplane ride
Airplane ride
When you locked me out of your life
And left me standing here behind

[Verse 2: Rosanne Cash & Rufus Wainwright]
Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading from sight

[Chorus: Rosanne Cash and Rufus Wainwright]
"Don't leave me," I cry
"Don't leave me," I cry
Don't take that airplane ride
Airplane ride
When you locked me out of your life
And left me standing here behind
[Verse 3: Rosanne Cash Rufus Wainwright]
Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away and leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading from sight
Silver wings slowly fading from sight
