Silver Lady

About Silver Lady

"Silver Lady" is a popular single by David Soul. Written by Tony Macaulay and Geoff Stephens and produced by Macaulay, "Silver Lady" was the second and final number one hit in the UK Singles Chart for David Soul, spending three weeks at the top in October 1977. It had spent five weeks in the top ten before eventually toppling Elvis Presley. The single also spent four weeks at number one in Ireland, and peaked at number five in Australia, but fared less well in his homeland peaking at #52 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at number #23 on the Easy Listening chart. It can be found on his second album Playing To An Audience of One. In the UK, the song was used in the 2013 film Filth, with David Soul miming the song while he kerb crawls in his car at night, eventually picking up a prostitute, with group of female singers in the back seat singing the chorus, and a 2014 television advert for bus operator National Express in which Soul is featured as a coach driver. As a result, the song re-entered the UK Charts at No.145 in June 2014. A compilation album of Soul's hits was subsequently released, also entering the UK top 200.. This song is also loved by Peter Kay, being used in many references during the classic comedy: Phoenix Nights. more »

Tired of drifting, searching, shifting
From town to town
Everytime I slip and slide
A little further down
I can't blame you if you wont take me back
After everything I put you through
But honey you're me last hope
And who else can I turn to?

Come on Silver Lady take my word
I won't run out on you again believe me
Oh I've seen the light
It's just one more night without you
Here I am a million miles away from home
The Indiana wind and rain cut through me
I'm lost and alone
Chilled to the bone
Silver lady

Double talkers and back street walkers
In every turn
Seedy motels and no star hotels
Still I had to learn
That the one shining thing in my life
Was the sweet love I had with you
And honey your my last hope
And who else can I turn to?

Come on Silver Lady take my word
I won't run out on you again believe me
Oh I've seen the light
It's just one more night without you
Here I am a million miles away from home
The Indiana wind and rain cut through me
I'm lost and alone
Chilled to the bone
Silver lady

Can't you find it in you to forgive me
'Cause here I am a million miles away from home
The Indiana wind and rain cut through me
I'm lost and alone
Chilled to the bone
Silver lady

Come on Silver Lady take my word
I won't run out on you again believe me
Oh I've seen the light
It's just one more night without you
