Sweet turtle dove
On wings of love
Flew into my life
I knew full well
Just time could tell
Or help you decide

Now that it's goodbye
Now that it's goodbye
I fall from the high
Was it a dream
My whole life it seems
Has just passed my by

Where are the words
I thought I heard
Were they just a lie
Was I a flame
You found in the rain
And stopped to get dry

Now you're gonna leave
Now you're gonna leave
And I wonder why
Love on the wing
Just stops to sing
And flys right on by

Now that it's goodbye
Now that it's goodbye
I fall from the high
As I watch you go
Lord you take my soul
And I close my eyes

Said it wasn't love, darling
But I can't get enought
And I Wonder why
Love on the wing
Just stops to sing
And flys right on by
Love on the wing
Just stops to sing
And flys right on by
