Gold & Silver Days |
As I sit here by the fireside |
I’m turning back the years. |
I can hear my mother singing in the morning |
As she scrubbed our shining faces |
And then packed us off to school. |
All too soon those days were over without warning. |
(CHORUS): |
So sing me the songs of our gold and silver days, |
Days filled with innocence and light. |
Not a penny to our name, |
We were happy just the same |
In our gold and silver days. |
In the parlour on a Friday night, |
My father took the floor. |
I can hear us join together in the chorus, |
Singing «Just a Song at Twilight» |
And «The Moon behind the Hill». |
Now those voices are all silenced, gone before us. |
(CHORUS) |
We gathered at the Daisy Field |
On Sunday afternoon, |
And we danced to Johnny Quigley and the Royal. |
Through the years we all were scattered, |
But our friends were good and true, |
Always there when they were needed, always loyal. |
(CHORUS) |
