Lyrics Silver Threads - Seth Lakeman

From here I am growing old,
Silver threads among the gold,
Will shine upon my brow today,
And darling you will ever be,
Always young and fair to me,
But time is fading so fast away.
Every year that passes you will be,
An evergreen all etched against the sky.
Every day that's granted for you and for me,
A tangle and a twist of ivy twine and life goes on.
Hollow cheeks and steps too slow,
To the heart that beats below,
Well take the breath you draw today.
Every year that passes you will be,
An elderberry all nested and entwined
Every day that's granted for you and for me,
A final drink of rich and flowing wine and life goes on and on and on and on.
