Dan Fogelberg, Tim Weisberg - The Power Of Gold lyrics
[Dan Fogelberg, Tim Weisberg - The Power Of Gold lyrics]
The story is told of the power of gold
And it's lure on the unsuspecting
It glitters and shines it badgers and blinds
And constantly needs protecting
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
With the dreams you lightly sold
Are you under the power of gold?
The power of gold
The letters and calls
Got you climbing the walls
And everyone wants a favor
They beg to remind you
Of times left behind you
But, you know the past is a loser
The face you're wearing is different now
And the days run hot and cold are you under
The power of gold?
The power of gold
You're a creature of habit run like a rabbit
Scared of a fear you can't name
Your own paranoia is looming before you
But nobody thinks that it's a game
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
With the dreams you lightly sold
Then tell me that you're free
Of the power of gold
The women are lovely the wine is superb
But there's something about the song
That disturbs you
And it's lure on the unsuspecting
It glitters and shines it badgers and blinds
And constantly needs protecting
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
With the dreams you lightly sold
Are you under the power of gold?
The power of gold
The letters and calls
Got you climbing the walls
And everyone wants a favor
They beg to remind you
Of times left behind you
But, you know the past is a loser
The face you're wearing is different now
And the days run hot and cold are you under
The power of gold?
The power of gold
You're a creature of habit run like a rabbit
Scared of a fear you can't name
Your own paranoia is looming before you
But nobody thinks that it's a game
Balance the cost of the soul you lost
With the dreams you lightly sold
Then tell me that you're free
Of the power of gold
The women are lovely the wine is superb
But there's something about the song
That disturbs you
