White Mirrors and Gold - D.A. Wallach

You found a mountain in the middle of Maine

A place the sun always shines

Tied up the horses to a castle’s remains

In the light, in the light

You can imagine that you are what they say

But that drove you out of there for days

First time you found yourself remotely amazed

Just a phase, just a phase

You made it to Montana now you gotta go on

Though remember:

It’s just white mirrors and gold

It only gets harder, so I was told

It’s just white mirrors and gold

You barely get started, it’s already old

They used to say you didn’t have what it takes

But those were phonys and fakes

Somehow you made it out that god in a snakes

To the shimmerin' lake

Tifanny diamonds from the money you made

Turns out it’s a good thing you stayed

Moment of silence for the armies you slayed

To what it takes to get payed

You made it passed Missouri now you gotta go on

It’s just white mirrors and gold

It only gets harder, so I was told

It’s just white mirrors and gold

You barely get started, it’s already old

White mirrors and gold

It only gets harder, so I was told

White mirrors and gold

You barely get started, it’s already old
