Song lyrics

There's a village by the seaside,
lt's the village I was born,
Lives a lovely girl named Silver
By the color of her hair.

Yes, we used to play together
By the harbor and the beach,
Yes, we used to sing together
With the people in the church.

All 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 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 spend 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 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 sometimes!

[2x:]
Silver, silver is her hair,
Silver was the love we sharin',
Silver, Silver, now I see
That your love was gold for me!

That your love was gold for me! [3x]
