"Silver Springs" is a song written by Stevie Nicks and performed by British-American band Fleetwood Mac. It was originally intended for the band's 1977 album Rumours but became a B-side to the single "Go Your Own Way" instead. The subject of the song is the breakup of the romantic relationship between Nicks and Fleetwood Mac guitarist and vocalist Lindsey Buckingham.

Conflicts over "Silver Springs" led Nicks to leave Fleetwood Mac in 1991. The song appeared on Fleetwood Mac's 1992 box set, 25 Years – The Chain. A live version of "Silver Springs" was released as a single from the band's 1997 album The Dance; this version of the song was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 1998. A version of "Silver Springs" appeared on a remastered edition of Rumours in 2004, and the song was also included in Nicks' 2007 compilation album, Crystal Visions - The Very Best of Stevie Nicks.
