Silver Bracelet

A silver bracelet

Round her wrist

On a bare brown arm

Against my neck as we did kiss

I heard those rattling silver charms

I found the handle in the dark

With my shaking hands

She lit a candle with a gentle spark

And have gentle commands

You see, I met a girl

Late in the night and I rode with her 'cross town

Very far and very fast I felt myself falling down, down, down

One silver bracelet

Like some magic charm

One little silver bracelet

On her brown arm

First thing she said watching cards as she threw

Two of cups

That's me and you

And beware towers

And hanged men

And meanings are

What you make of them

You see, I met a girl

Late in the night and I rode with her across town

Into my future

And into my past

I found myself falling down, down, down

A silver bracelet round her wrist

On a bare brown arm

Against my neck as we did kiss

I still hear those rattling silver charms
