Silver Threads And Golden Needles

(альбом: In Person Live At "Mr Lucky's" In Phoenix Arizona - 1969)

I don't want your lonely mansion
With a tear in every room
I just want the love you promised
Beneath the haloed moon

But you think I should be happy
With your money and your name
And pretend that I don't notice
While you play your cheating games

Silver threads and golden needles
Can't patch up this heart of mine
And I'll never drown my sorrows
In the warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money
For I was never was that kind
Silver threads and golden needles
Can't patch up this heart of mine

I grew up in faded gingham
Where love is a sacred thang
You grew up in silk and satin
Where love's the passing game

I know now, you never loved me
And I know I was a fool
To think your pride would let you
Live by the golden rule

Silver threads and golden needles
Can't patch up this heart of mine
And I'll never drown my sorrows
In the warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money
For I was never was that kind
Silver threads and golden needles
Can't patch up this heart of mine
