George Baker Selection Silver
There's a village by the seaside lt'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 anä 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 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 . . . I wasn't there when you needed me most of all. I wasn't there on your weddingday 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 . . .
