Foolish little girl,
To love a singer boy like me.
Within my eyes, what do you see?
If you told me love,
I'd know it wasn't true.
It's just another dream,
It's never what it seems
To foolish girls like you.
Listen to my songs,
And not the things my eyes might say.
My silver tunes will lead the way.
I'll be all that you need,
And keep you safe from harm.
So come, let's run away —
You'll find a better day
Within my patient arms.
Strings of silvered steel
That flutter like my silver heart.
'Though flesh and steel must one day part,
I'll never leave you cold,
I promise that is true.
You'll need me for some time.
How could I leave behind
A foolish girl like you?
Although of silvered steel,
I know I'll always feel,
My foolish girl, for you.
