Pendragon - As Good As Gold lyrics

As the stars begin to fall away Our breath as close as a summers' day I open my eyes and look up to the skies and I dream A moment of magic as we lay As candles flicker and the shadows play I open my eyes and look up to the skies and I dream Dream that a new life will be born Kicking and screaming into the world Tolerance threshold low Bowing to demands of a guilty conscience And out of your control Innocent eyes tell forgivable lies In a spirit that's so pure Marching into the madness of youth And no hope of a cure He's trying he's fighting all the laws of gravity No signs of achievement no responsibility In a world of his own Cos the right of the world pushed him oh too far But his Mother always said he was good as gold (x3) Tricking and scheming into the world Flying his flag so high From the turret of a battle tank Drowned out by his own war cry He's trying he's fighting all the laws of gravity No signs of achievement no responsibility In a world of his own Cos the right of the world pushed him oh too far But his Mother always said he was good as gold (x4)
