Long before I came to New York City
I left my man somewhere back home
Heaven knows that life can be a pity
Found this man of mine sun ain?t gonna shine
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
Keep on flying
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
My heart?s dying
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
Oh, he?s waiting
He?ll wait for me ?till I come back home
Long time he was alone
Deep inside I feel the good vibrations
I can smell the green, green grass of home
I can?t wait no more I?ve lost my patience
Heaven can you see what?s going on with me
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
Keep on flying
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
My heart?s dying
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
Oh, he?s waiting
He?ll wait for me ?till I come back home
Long time he was alone
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
Keep on flying
Silver bird, Silver bird, Silver bird
My heart?s dying
