Silver
Words and music by Julia Ecklar © 1966

C D Foolish little girl, to love a singer boy like me G C Within my eyes, what do you see? D G C Am If you told me, “Love,” I’d know it wasn’t true; D It’s just another dream. G It’s never what it seems C To foolish girls like you. Listen to my songs, and not the things my eyes might say; My silver tunes will lead the way. I’ll be all that you need, and keep you safe from harm. So come, let’s run away. You’ll find a better day Within my patient arms. Strings of silvered steel that flutter like my silver heart, ‘Though flesh and steel must one day part. I’ll never leave you cold; I promise that is true. You’ll need me for some time. How could I leave behind A foolish girl like you? Although of silvered steel, I know I’ll always feel, My foolish girl, for you.
