Lyrics:

I can understandThe rain that fallsWaves that crash upon the shoreAnd I know that everyoneMust have freedom todayAnd baby in my dreams I seeI 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 lifeBurning brighter each dayAnd baby in my dreams I seeI 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 IAm waiting for youAnd everywhere you goI'm with you still (fly silverbird)I know you willReturn somedayAnd through the rain and the snow (and the snow)When there's nowhere left to goI hope you'll stayOh darling, now I understandAnd 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 loveLike an ocean todayAnd baby in my dreams I seeI 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 IAm waiting for youAnd everywhere you goI'm with you still (fly silverbird)I know you willReturn somedayAnd through the rain and the snow (and the snow)When there's nowhere left to goI hope you'll stayOh darling, now I understandAnd I'm home to stay
So fly, my silverbird (fly silverbird)You know that IAm waiting for youAnd everywhere you goI'm with you still (fly silverbird)I know you willReturn somedayAnd through the rain and the snow (and the snow)When there's nowhere left to goI hope you'll stayOh darling, now I understandAnd I'm home to stay
And through the rain and the snow (and the snow)When there's nowhere left to goI hope you'll stayOh darling, now I understandAnd I'm home to stay
(oh, oh, oh my silverbird, come on home to stay) repeat and fade
