"Silver Threads Among the Gold" was a popular song in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today it is a standard of barbershop quartet singing. The lyrics are by Eben E. Rexford, and the music by Hart Pease Danks.

Darling, I am growing old,

Silver threads among the gold,

Shine upon my brow today,

Life is fading fast away.

But, my darling, you will be, will be

Always young and fair to me,

Yes, my darling, you will be

Always young and fair to me.

When your hair is silver white,

And your cheeks no longer bright,

With the roses of the May,

I will kiss your lips and say,

Oh! My darling, mine alone, alone,

You have never older grown!

Yes, my darling, mine alone,

You have never older grown!

Love can never more grow old,

Locks may lose their brown and gold;

Cheeks may fade and hollow grow,

But the hearts that love will know,

But, my darling, you will be, will be

Always young and fair to me,

Yes, my darling, you will be

Always young and fair to me.
