[Verse 1]
When I was a little girl
Younger than nine or ten
I once spoke to the silver lady
But I never saw her again, again
To me she flew out of the sky
She was born riding on the water
Her hair blew all around her
She was the crazy man's only daughter
I used to see her every day
Riding her golden pony
Only once did I hear her laugh
And it echoed far and lonely
[Verse 2]
Once I watched the river run
And I wandered too far from home
There I met the silver lady
She was crying, all alone, alone
I said, "Lady, why are you crying?
If I had wings like you
I would be flying over this river
And singing like only birds do"
Well she threw back her head and she smiled at me
Her tears, how they shone in the sun
She said, "I have no wings to fly with
If I did I would surely be gone"
