Silver Dagger

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm on the dark side of a hollow hill The sun comes up, babe, but it's hard to get my fill Your blue serape, it fits my mood I'm through with Bibles and I'm through with food [Verse 2] Somebody's calling, trying to track me down And if I don't answer, I can hang around I slide past lovers lost in the dark I look for high ground for to build an ark [Verse 3] I can't remember when I felt so free Maybe September, the year you believed in me In nineteen hundred and ninety-nine When I found the angels a-drinking wine [Verse 4] Seems every castle is made of sand The great destroyer sleeps in every man Here comes my baby, here comes my man With that silver dagger in his hand With that silver dagger in his hand
