Lyrics
can't give my love no silver and no gold
She don't hold her riches in her hand
She told me her love is the finest marigold
And it can't be bought by any man
CHORUS:
In the long and easy silence
In the sigh of eventide, I know our love is true
The bell's quiet toll, the whisper of the soul
The stillness of our love coming through
Summertime my love and I went up the mountain side
The world a-humming soft and simple tunes
Shining like the sun, full of love she cannot hide
A bride on her wedding afternoon
CHORUS
Here we are, my love, in the autumn of our lives
With thoughts of distant daughters and sons
Winter soon will come to the solemn riverside
With waters all running into one
