Sally Oldfield - Silver dagger 1987

Driving in the wind and rain as evening comes
longing to see him again I've been away too long.
But in the moonlight I can feel
my heart is beating like a drum
A wild suspicion flashes dark across my mind.

Walking up the driveway
I can see another woman by his side
I held my hand out and this is
what I cried:

Here's a silver dagger
present for the bride
Silver dagger
shining in the night
shining in the night
shining in the night.

She offered me a cup of red red wine
Said: Won't you try to have a good time?
I turned my eyes on to her face
And I could read all the lines
I said: Whatever you try to do you know he's mine!

Walking up behind her
I could see her face grow cold
I said: A gipsy's curse is on you
and on everything you hold!

Here's a silver dagger
present for the bride
Silver dagger
shining in the night
shining in the night
shining in the night.

(Instrumental)

Here's a silver dagger
present for the bride
Silver dagger
shining in the night
shining in the night
shining in the night.

Here's a silver dagger
present for the bride
Silver dagger
shining in the night.

Here's a silver dagger
present for the bride
Silver dagger
