New Silver Bells (1951) Songtext
von Webb Pierce

I′ll linger down in Mexico
And met a señorita
Who wore new silver bells
Bright shining silver bells
That chimed as we danced
That seemed to say I love you so
As we danced to and fro
Neath the candle glow
That starlight night
When we found romance
Now the limelight was shining
In her Spanish eyes


Spelling paradise
I spot it all but alas
Next fiesta I swore
That we would meet again
Knowing then and there
I'll never return
And now I live in memory
Though it′s much too late
To change the foolish past
I played
To leave my brown eyed babe
With the silver bells
