Apache
Sonny James


Lonely Silver Dove
Sweet Apache maid
Lonely Silver Dove
Sweet Apache maid
Alone
All alone
By the campfire
She dreamed
Of her love
Her delight
Away
Far away
On the prairie
Her love
Golden Hawk
Shared the night

Sometimes at night
With the moon
He would come
Sweet were the moments
They shared
But with the dawn
He was gone with the sun

A smoke sign arose
From the prairie
A breeze sighed a sad
Mournful song
The brave Golden Hawk
Had departed
Had gone to that great
Great beyond
Sometimes at night
When there's rain in the sky
She hears her love
High above
He and his pony go
Thundering by

Lonely Silver Dove
Sweet Apache maid
