Tears Of Gold

Lyrics for Tears Of Gold

One day we are young And by the next one we are old Despite the years And tears of gold precede the rapture Time has it's way With everyone in it's path She combs her hair And tears of gold fall on the gray Tears of gold Tears of golden restraint As evidence of the pain That we feel inside Mary Anne, settle down Let's bring the band around how 'bout And we'll sing you to heaven and back Laura Lee sets the food out On the table top for us And when she asks Mary Anne to say Grace Mary Anne settles down Wiping tears of gold from her face Where we are strong By tomorrow we will grow weak and disappear Our families will gather 'round to remember Where we are flesh and blood By the next one we are dust under the wheels Without a love we're only ash in urns of silver Tears of gold Tears of golden restraint As evidence of the pain That she feels Tears of gold Tears of gold promise the rapture And heal the soul Replacing tears of gold With music and laughter Tears of gold Tears of gold
