Santa Lucia By Night Lyrics

There's a village by the seaside



lt's the village I was born



Lives a lovely girl named Silver



By the colour of her
hair.

Yes

we used to play together

By the harbour an the
beach.

Yes

we used to sing together

With the people in the
church.



AII the older people smiled

When we were walkin'
down the streets.

Yes

they said that I was born for you

And
you were born for me.

But my heart was always restless

And the
village much too small.

So I left my home and friends

And kissed
goodbye my Silver girl.



Silver

silver is her hair.

Silver was the love we sharin'.

Silver

Silver now I see



That your love was gold for me.



Yes

I saw so many
cities

And I loved so many girls



But no one was there more
pretty

Than my lovely Silver girl.

Too much songs and too much
wine

I spend my life without regrets



But I always shed a
tear

When I think of the love we had.



Silver

silver is
her hair . . .



I wasn't there when you needed me most of all.

I wasn't there on your weddingday

I did not call.

I wasn't there
at the day that your first child was born.

But believe me Baby

I
think about you some time.



Silver

silver is her hair . . .
