Johnny Rivers - Silver Threads And Golden Needles Lyrics

Johnny Rivers Lyrics

"Silver Threads And Golden Needles"

I don't want your lonely mansion
With a tear in every room
All I want is the love you promised
Beneath the haloed moon
But you think I should be happy
With your money and your name
And I hide my tears in sorrow
While you play your cheatin' game

Silver threads and golden needles
Cannot mend this heart of mine
And I dare not drown my sorrow
In the warm glow of your wine
You can't buy my love with money
For I never was that kind
Silver threads and golden needles
Cannot mend this heart of mine

I don't want your lonely mansion
With a tear in every room
All I want is the love you promised
Beneath the haloed moon
But you think I should be happy
With your money and your name
And I hide my tears in sorrow
While you play your cheatin' game

Silver threads and golden needles
Cannot mend this heart of mine
And I dare not drown my sorrow
In the warm glow of your wine
You can't buy my love with money
For I never was that kind
Silver threads and golden needles
Cannot mend this heart of mine

Silver threads and golden needles
Cannot mend this heart of mine
