Foolish little girl, to love a singer boy like me Within my eyes, what do you see? If you told me love, I'd know it wasn't true It's just another dream It's never what it seems To foolish girls like you
Listen to my song, and not the things my eyes might say My silver tune can lead the way I'll be all that you need and keep you safe from harm So come, let's run away We'll find a better day Within my patient arms
Strings of silver steel that flutter like a silver heart Though flesh and steel must someday part I'll never leave you cold, I promise that is true You'll need me for some time How could I leave behind A foolish girl like you?
Although of silvered steel, I know I'll always feel, My foolish girl, for you _____________________________ In addition, singer Julia Ecklar in her album known as Divine Intervention has made a song titled 'Silver' which is based on Lee's novel. The song is from Silver's point of view on Jane and her feelings for him; basically being a tune about an impossible love, yet there are hints, just as in 'The Silver Metal Lover', of him caring for Jane. Oddly enough the song also implies that he is not capable of love. Clearly Ecklar is playing off of the uncertain relationship between the two characters as the melody is soft and romantic despite its conflicting lyrics.
