Life of Gold - Kayak

We turn our heads, lower the eyes

Is it painful, too disgraceful to be seen

We build a castle weak but high

Walls to ward off rude awakenings from a dream

The castle then the ruins left

The load of a thousand dreams

Beyond the reach of eyes and ears

Horizons call and seem to hold

Life of gold

We carry on and bravely bear

The weight of years in which we’ll face the odds

For all we know you will be there

The masquerade goes on forever and we’re caught for life

An endless journey guided by

The pull of of mighty streams

Beyond the reach of eyes and ears

Horizons call and seem to hold

Life of gold

Many a morning you’ll wake up and find

That it’s right

Only you by me side

Needing me, say you do

Let me see you through
