The Silver Dagger - Solas

Don't sing love songs you'll wake my mother

She's sleeping here right by my side

In her right hand a silver dagger

She says that I can't be your bride

All men are fools so says my mother

They'll tell you again love and lies

And then they'll go and court some other

Leave you alone to pine inside

My daddy is a handsome devil

He's got a chain five miles long

On every link a heart does dangle

Of another maid he's loved and wronged

Go court another tender maiden

In hopes that she might be your bride

For I've been warned so I decided

I'll sleep alone all of my life

Don't sing love songs you'll wake my mother

She's sleeping here right by my side

In her right hand a silver dagger

She says that I can't be your bride
