Cherry van Gelder-Smith - silverboy lyrics

<b>silverboy</b> by <i>Cherry van Gelder-Smith</i><br />I've been told by the other girls

when you're travelling with your band

you're dressed up all in silver

when you're singin' for your fans.

Running round through the flashing lights

all your life now is just a show

I try to write and tell you

there are some things I want you to know.

Silverboy, silverboy

up on stage you're like a little boy

shinin' toy, silverboy

please come back again and bring me joy.

Dancing round in your shiny clothes

makes you loved by all the girls

from Rio to Chicago

you're their image of a dreadful world

keep on singin' till your fans have gone

when you need a place to rest

then maybe you'll remember

I'm the girl who loved you the best

Silverboy ...

If you come back to my place

I won't feel so lonely

you can be sure of a place to stay

so rest for a while

let me see your smile

stay just for a little while.

Silverboy, silverboy

up on stage you're like a little boy

shinin' toy, silverboy

please come back again and bring me joy.
