Silver Songtext
von George Baker Selection

There′s a village by the seaside, it's the village I was born
Lives a lovely girl named Silver, by the colour of her hair
Yes, we used to play together by the harbour and the beach
Yes, we used to sing together with the people in the church

AII the older people smiled when we were walkin′ down the streets
Yes, they said that I was born for you, and you were born for me
But my heart was always restless and the village much too small
So I left my home and friends, and kissed goodbye my Silver girl

Silver, silver is her hair
Silver was the love we're sharin'
Silver, Silver, now I see
That your love was gold for me

Yes, I saw so many cities, and I loved so many girls
But no one was there more pretty than my lovely Silver girl
Too much songs and too much wine, I spent my life without regrets
But I always shed a tear when I think of the love we had


Silver, silver is her hair
Silver was the love we′re sharin′
Silver, Silver, now I see
That your love was gold for me

I wasn't there when you needed me most of all
I wasn′t there on your wedding day, I did not call
I wasn't there at the day that your first child was born
But believe me, baby, I think about you some time

Silver, silver is her hair
Silver was the love we′re sharin'
Silver, Silver, now I see
That your love was gold for me

Silver, silver is her hair
Silver was the love we′re sharin'
Silver, Silver, now I see
That your love was gold for me (oh)

That your love was gold for me (yeah)
That your love was gold for me (oh)
That your love was gold for me
