Celtic Thunder - Gold & Silver Days Lyrics
As I'm sitting here in 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]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" Or "The Moon Behind the Hill". Now those voices are all silent, gone before us. [Chorus]Then we gathered at the Daisy Field on Sunday after Mass, I can hear the songs, the stories, and the laughterThrough the years we all were scattered, but the friends we made back thenwere the friends we could rely on everafter.[Chorus]
