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