Special Guest: Sting

There was a time when I would have followed you

To the end of the earth

I was willing to share it all with you

The love, the hurt

I've seen you when your dreams were falling in the dust

But I never stopped believing in you

I always thought our love was strong enough

One you could hold on to

You never see it coming

You just let it fly

On silent wings, silent wings

You can't hide what you you feel inside

And the fire has left your eyes

On silent wings

I see us in our dreams and we're dancing

I can almost hear the song

But the prayers, they go unanswered

But we both know, we're just hanging on

I feel ashamed, but I'll never know the reason why

The rug was pulled so gently from under my feet

I only know that something good has died

Between you and me, oh it's just a memory

You never see it coming

You just go separate ways

On silent wings, silent wings

There's no more promises to break

Or our love has slipped away

On silent wings

You never see it coming

But you know it has to end

On silent wings, silent wings

I will never be the same again

I feel the whisper of the wind

On silent wings
