Thread Name: Lyr Req: New Silver Bells (from Webb Pierce)
Subject: 'other' Silver Bells
Last night at music someone played a tune they didn't know has words to it. I can't remember many of the words but some of them are:

Oh, the lovelight was shining in her Spanish eyes
There in paradise, I swore we'd meet again...
Knowing there and then I'd ne'er return...

And now I live in memory
Although it's much too late to change the foolish part I played
To win my brown-eyed maid with silver bells...

Some of these words are no doubt wrong and in the wrong order but maybe they'll shake loose someone else's memory. We called the song Silver Bells, but all my searches bring up only the Christmas one.

Can someone help? Thanks, much.
