robin pecknold – silver dagger lyrics
[chorus]
don’t sing love songs, you’ll wake my mother
she’s sleeping here, right by my side
and in her right hand, a silver dagger
she says that i can’t be your bride
[verse 1]
“all men are false,” said my mother
“they’ll tell you wicked, loving lies
and the very next evening, they’ll court another
leave you alone to pine and sigh”
[verse 2]
my daddy, he’s a handsome devil
he’s got a chain five miles long
and on every link, a heart does dangle
of another maid he’s loved and wronged
[verse 3]
so court another tender maiden
and hope that she will be your wife
for i have been warned and i’ve decided
to sleep alone all of my life
[chorus]
don’t sing love songs, you’ll wake my mother
she’s sleeping here, right by my side
and in her right hand, a silver dagger
she says that i can’t be your bride
