He Wears A Pair Of Silver Wings -Artist: Kay Kyser as sung on "The Best Years Of Our Lives" -Adam VIII, Ltd. A-8042 -peak Billboard position # 1 for 4 weeks in 1942 -competing version by Dinah Shore charted at # 16 -Words by Eric Maschwitz and Music by Michael Carr Although some people say he's just a crazy guy To me he means a million other things For he's the one who taught this happy heart of mine to fly He wears a pair of silver wings And though it's pretty tough, the job he does above I wouldn't have him change it for a king An ordinary fellow in a uniform I love He wears a pair of silver wings Why, I'm so full of pride when we go walking Every time he's home on leave He with those wings on his tunic And me with my heart on my sleeve But when I'm left alone and we are far apart I sometimes wonder what tomorrow brings For I adore that crazy guy who taught my happy heart To wear a pair of silver wings For I adore that crazy guy who taught my happy heart To wear a pair of silver wings Transcribed by Robin Hood These lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned above and do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheet music, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets.
