Silverboy

{corrected by Adri Verhoef, 10-12-2023}

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 singing for your fans

Running round through flashing lights
All your life now's just a show
I try to write and tell you
There's some things I want you to know

[chorus]:
Silverboy, silverboy
Up on stage you're like a little boy
Shining toy, silverboy
Please come back again and bring me joy

Dancing round in shiny clothes
Makes you loved by all the girls
From Rio to Chicago
You're their image of a dreamlike world

Keep on singing till your fans have gone
And you need a place to rest
Then maybe you'll remember
I'm the girl who loved you the best

[chorus]

If you come back to my place
I won't feel so lonely
You can be sure of a place to stay
Just rest for a while
Let me see your smile
Stay just for a little while

[chorus] [repeat and fade]
