Silver (The Hunger) - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]

Written by : Kris Kristofferson[00:00:02]

Silver was a rounder with a wicked reputation[00:00:14]

Music was his magic and his madness rolled in one[00:00:20]

It's said he charmed the fairest hearts of this world's fairest maidens[00:00:27]

Quick as silver mercury and slippery as a song[00:00:34]

Winding like a river through a thirsty world of strangers[00:00:43]

Carving out a legend in a dream- forsaken land[00:00:50]

Silver took his pleasures just as freely as he gave them[00:00:56]

'Cause hungry eyes weren't quick enough for silver's flashing hands[00:01:03]

Then once upon escaping from the world of silk and shadows[00:01:11]

Sudden growin' sicker of the secrets and the shame[00:01:18]

He stumbled onto something real that beckoned like a candle[00:01:25]

And never lookin' backwards he surrendered to the flame[00:01:32]

Because hunger is the surface of a darkened pool of sadness[00:01:39]

Silver pale reflection of a deeper need below[00:01:53]

Mystery and magic are the holy forms of madness[00:02:06]

Sacred as the ecstasy that slumbers in your soul[00:02:20]

Silver moved instinctively within her soft defenses[00:02:40]

Soon unfolding mysteries he'd never seen before[00:02:47]

And wakening an ancient need she slipped inside his senses[00:02:54]

And silver took it easy as the closing of a door[00:03:00]

Then soon he touched the secret fears she'd hidden with her sorrows[00:03:09]

Darker than her raven hair and deeper than her eyes[00:03:15]

And dared to try to lead her to the sunlight from her shadows[00:03:22]

Following the line between her laughter and her lies[00:03:29]

But silver left his magic with the legend he'd abandoned[00:03:37]

Love had stripped him naked of illusion and it's charms[00:03:44]

Then one long night her changing mind took kindly to a stranger[00:03:51]

And morning found her moving in the golden stranger's arms[00:03:58]

Because hunger is the surface of a darkened pool of sadness[00:04:06]

Silver pale reflection of a deeper need below[00:04:20]

Mystery and magic are the holy forms of madness[00:04:33]

Sacred as the ecstasy that slumbers in your soul[00:04:46]

Silver stared in silence at the tangled scene before him[00:05:07]

Time was burning frozen in the oceans of his eyes[00:05:14]

And sadly turning backwards to the world that he'd forsaken[00:05:20]

He donned the shining mantle of deception and disguise[00:05:27]

Slowly with the patience born of silent desperation[00:05:36]

Silver worked his way into the darkness of her mind[00:05:43]

Weaving through her conscience like a chance she might have taken[00:05:50]

Sadder than the shadows of the love she'll never find[00:05:56]

And silver's spell was stronger than the softly smiling stranger[00:06:04]

Whose star was burning smaller in the naked light of day[00:06:11]

And silver took her hand again a wiser man but sadder[00:06:18]

Ready for the stranger who would steal her love away[00:06:26]

Because hunger is the surface of a darkened pool of sadness[00:06:33]

Silver pale reflection of a deeper need below[00:06:48]

Mystery and magic are the holy forms of madness[00:07:00]

Sworn to free the ecstasy that slumbers in your soul[00:07:14]
