Gold - JAWN

look outside your window now

see your face in pavements lined with gold

feel that weariness that steals your heart

a sense of yearning drills down to the bones

but all these things that we have won

along the way i’ve found that they possess me

quietly we breathe our fears

our prayers defend against this great unknown

but words alone cannot stop tears

and lines will draw on cheeks as we grow older

and in this life you give more than you take

but we are found there in the losing

so give, give, give,

give, give, give a little more

give a little more

don’t you know you’ve come this way before

i don’t know, i don’t know what for

don’t you know you’ve come this way before

don’t you know you’ve come this way before

I don’t know, I don’t know what for

don’t you know you’ve walked right out the door

look outside your window, child

see your face in pavements lined with gold

feel that weariness that fills your heart

a sense of yearning thrills you to the bones
