John Wesley - Silver lyrics

Silver has a gun

on the nightstand by her bed

and she wonders if the day will come

when she puts it to her head

And she is alone again

in the shadow of the morning sun

and she wonders if he really had to go

or did he just turn tail and run

He promised that he would come

but she don't wait by the phone

because they never call and they never come

and she just ends up alone

And as the end of the night comes

when that curtain starts to fall

she says you can be the one for me

when you take it take it all

Just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

just stay with me tonight

don't leave me alone tonight

She looks at all the other people

sees how they love the way they do

and she wonders how they often seem

to live as happy as they do

Am I the only one alone here

is there someone here for me

or am I just that silver shade of grey

that nobody wants to see

Just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

but just stay with me tonight

just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

but just stay with me tonight

don't leave me alone tonight

And Silver owns the nighttime

where she knows the men do come

as if the whiskey seems to clear their eyes

she says I can be the one

And she waits for her new lover

well the barman give the last call

she says tonight I give my love to you

but when you take me take it all

Just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

but just stay with me tonight

just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

just stay with me tonight

Just say heigh ho Silver

when you ride when you ride

when you take me take it all from me

but just stay with me tonight

but don't leave me alone tonight

don't leave me alone tonight

just don't leave me alone tonight
