Silver Wings - Rory Block
Two houses were born
In a very different time
And I saw one from above
As I circled in a cloud
And I was flying in a cloud
And it had white porches
And small windows
It had a wild front yard
It had a wild front yard
And I was flying
Trying not to fall too hard
I was flying
Trying not to fall down too far
But my faith
My faith can pull me up on silver wings
Silver wings
I heard a voice
It was Wendy saying
She said a soul wants to be born
She said
You will be its mother
You know you are its chosen one
I was nursing a baby
He was my own little child
And then he looked at me so wild
He had laughter in his eyes
But I was crying
Trying not to fall to hard
I was crying
Trying not to fall down too far
But my faith
Faith can pull me up on silver wings
I had a friend
She was wise and patient
She had raven black hair
And her eyes were morning blue
You know she always spoke the truth
And she rode white horses
That she raised on a farm
While many birds were singing
And there were birds everywhere
And she was flying
She didn't want to look down
She was flying
She didn't want to fall down
But her faith
Her faith could pull her up on silver strings
Silver strings
Oh yeah
But I was crying
Trying not to fall to hard
I was crying
Trying not to fall down too far
But my faith
Faith can pull me up on silver wings
Silver wings
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
