Silverbird Lyrics

(Justin Hayward)

I can understand
The rain that falls
Waves that crash upon the shore
And I know that everyone
Must have freedom today
And baby in my dreams I see
I see you walking away

I can understand the moon and stars
	(understand moon and stars)
Wonders of this world of ours
	(wondrous world of ours)
And I see the fire of life
Burning brighter each day
And baby in my dreams I see
I see you walking away                              (walking away)
So far away                                                 (so far away) 
I see you walking away                              (walking away)

So fly, my silverbird                                     (fly silverbird)
You know that I
Am waiting for you
And everywhere you go
I'm with you still                                           (fly silverbird)
I know you will
Return someday
And through the rain and the snow           (and the snow)
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll stay
Oh darling, now I understand
And I'm home to stay

When I close my eyes, I see you there
	                              (close my eyes, see you there)
In everyone and everywhere       (everyone, everywhere)
And I feel the power of love
Like an ocean today
And baby in my dreams I see
I see you walking away                               (walking away)
So far away                                                   (so far away)
I see you walking away                               (walking away)

So fly, my silverbird                                      (fly silverbird)
You know that I
Am waiting for you
And everywhere you go
I'm with you still                                             (fly
silverbird)
I know you will 
Return someday
And through the rain and the snow            (and the snow)
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll stay
Oh darling, now I understand
And I'm home to stay

So fly, my silverbird                                      (fly silverbird)
You know that I
Am waiting for you
And everywhere you go
I'm with you still                                             (fly
silverbird)
I know you will
Return someday
And through the rain and the snow             (and the snow)
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll stay
Oh darling, now I understand
And I'm home to stay

And through the rain and the snow              (and the snow)
When there's nowhere left to go
I hope you'll stay
Oh darling, now I understand
And I'm home to stay

(oh, oh, oh my silverbird, come on home to stay)  repeat and fade
