Lyrics for Silly Woman

Silly woman, why must you whisper? There's no need of talking No, not one word Ooh, ooh, ooh Who will hear us at this hour? There's no one around, girl No one around Ooh, ooh, ooh Silly woman, why must you chatter? Don't you think that love is true, girl? Think that love is true Ooh, ooh, ooh Would you worry and weep over me, girl? For my soul now is dying My soul now is dead Ooh, ooh, ooh River racing on to the ocean No more will you travel No more for me Ooh, ooh, ooh All my dreams and I have all vanished slowly And I am left with nothing No, nothing left Ooh, ooh, ooh I am left with nothing No, not one penny of love have I left
