Lyrics

Gold

All my winning and losing lovers
She is gold yet to be discovered
Let my heart beat for no one other
As my heart beats to need a lover

She’s my gold yet to be discovered
Let my heart beat for no one other
For no one other

All my triumph from all my failing
She’s my queen of the great unveiling
It’s a freedom to never know the odds of your fate
To whom I give my word, to love I give my faith

And what you give for that gold
All the things you left behind that you never let go
The promises, the sacred lines only lovers should know
Everything you’ve been denied and the treasures untold
All I’ve got is what I give for that gold
For that gold

From these ashes a fire woken
How it burns when the heart is open
Every weather will get a little low to get high
The sun makes you youthful, the rains will keep you wise

And what you give for that gold
All the things you left behind that you never let go
The promises, the sacred lines only lovers should know
Everything you’ve been denied and the treasures untold
All I’ve got is what I give for that gold
For that gold
For that gold
For that gold
