Gold and Silver Days
As I'm sit here by the firelight, I'm turning back the years
I can hear my mother singing in the mornin'
As she scrubbed our shining faces, and then packed us off to school
All too soon those days were over without warning
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 they are all silenced, gone before us
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
We gathered at the daisy field, on Sunday afternoon
Then we danced to Brandy Quigley and the Royal
Through the years we all were scattered
But those friends were good and true
Always there when they were needed, always loyal
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 our gold and silver days
I can hear my mother singing in the mornin'
As she scrubbed our shining faces, and then packed us off to school
All too soon those days were over without warning
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 they are all silenced, gone before us
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
We gathered at the daisy field, on Sunday afternoon
Then we danced to Brandy Quigley and the Royal
Through the years we all were scattered
But those friends were good and true
Always there when they were needed, always loyal
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 our gold and silver days
