I was a young boy

Yeah she was young too

So in love but they don't understand

Games that we played

Blue shadows in a doorway

Stealing time forbidden kisses

I wanted to stay but I had to go away

[Chorus]

Silverbird come take me home to you

Silverbird come take me home to you

Well it's been five years

Unjustified years

Other girls that just don't make it

Face to face with you

Red sunset through my window

I won't sleep tonight I'm coming home

Please let it be that you're waiting there for me

[Chorus]
