The Von Trapps - Dancing In Gold lyrics

How many times does it take to learn The further I hold my heart out The harder it burns Even though I could try to protect my soul By turning my heart to stone I'm better dead than alone Love doesn't make our lives easier at all It can only make it worth the time Dancing in Gold God knows we're caught and we're pulled You can't sell your youth for control Not if you want to grow old Run and return Freeze turn and learn how to burn You got to fight to keep soul When you're dancing in gold ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah aaaaahhhh Even though it's good to be clean as snow You'd better be dread in carmine When the heads roll Is it gambling with the precious few important things While I'm dancing, still I'm trembling I still have a home How much would you risk to find the truth And how far would you go to know it's proof Dancing in gold God knows we're caught and we're pulled You can't sell your youth for control Not if you want to grow old Run and return Freeze turn and learn how to burn You got to fight to keep soul When you're dancing in gold Dancing in gold God knows we're caught and we're pulled You can't sell your youth for control You got to wait to go home Aah aah aah
