Two Allegheny engines broke the silence of the morning

Cause whisper jets don't whisper when they take your world away

The one that I was living for flew out and she was glad

That's too bad cause she's all I've ever had

And there she goes on that seven-forty-seven

Climbing higher into heaven than my angel ever dared to fly

And she's twice as high on some old California mem'ry than she ever was on me



That silver bird is sparkling like a diamond in the sunlight

And the vapor trail is fading like the love she had for me

Her soft and tender feelings left with her and she was glad

That's too bad cause she's all I've ever had

And there she goes...



The tears that I've been holding back have finaly found their freedom

And the shoes that they're falling on may never get me home

The one that I was living for flew out and she was glad

That's too bad cause she's all I've ever had

And there she goes...

Two Allegheny engines broke the silence of the morning

Cause whisper jets don't whisper when they take your world away
