Pause at the stone tower in the foothills |
|
Why should we hide from anyone? |
|
Held you in my arms for the first time that day |
|
Felt like God's anointed when you didn't push me away |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
|
Lean on the concrete walls in shadow |
|
Why should we wait to throw the switch? |
|
Felt your name burn in like a tattoo into my skin |
|
Rain on the clay tiles all night your head nestled beneath my chin |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
|
In the lost age where the jewels hide |
|
And the salt sticks in the waiting stone still warm |
|
Small chambers shrinking till they vanish |
|
Wolves in the hallway gaining ground |
|
Reach down to the moment when I should have said something true |
|
Shadows and their sources now stealing away with you |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
|
Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings |
