Mainliner (The Hawk with Silver Wings)

There goes that mainliner

A heart with silver wings

There goes that mainliner

Stole my love from me

I can't compete with an open sky

Goodnight my love good luck goodbye mainliner

She was born in the land of snow

Gypsy heart just born to roam

Took one look at an aeroplane

That's when I lost my love

Tonight she's serving someone tea

Behind a cloud where I can't see

A hostess on a big mainline

That goes from sea to sea

There goes that mainliner

A heart with silver wings

There goes that mainliner

Stole my love from me

I can't compete with an open sky

Goodnight my love good luck goodbye mainliner

Hot rod cars are just too tame

My girl friend likes bigger game

Motors roar in an open sky

New york on the beam

Now by the runway all alone

Seems that girl is never home

When I can't hold her in my arms

I hold her in my dreams

There goes that mainliner

A heart with silver wings

There goes that mainliner

Stole my love from me

I can't compete with an open sky

Goodnight my love good luck goodbye mainliner

She has starlight in her eyes

Caught it from the midnight skies

Moon beams in her golden hair

That's my restless love

Always craving lands a far

Guided by an evening star

Like an eagle on it's lonely flight

That circles up above

There goes that mainliner

A heart with silver wings

There goes that mainliner

Stole my love from me

I can't compete with an open sky

Goodnight my love good luck goodbye mainliner
