Song language: English
Love Over Gold |
| You walk out on the high wire |
| You’re a dancer on thin ice |
| You pay no heed to the danger |
| And less to advice |
| Your footsteps are forbidden |
| But with knowledge of your sin |
| You throw your love to all the strangers |
| And caution to the wind |
| And you go dancing through doorways |
| Just to see what you will find |
| Leaving nothing to interfere |
| With the crazy balance of your mind |
| And when you finally reappear |
| At the place where you came in |
| You’ve thrown your love to all the strangers |
| And caution to the wind |
| It takes love over gold |
| And mind over matter |
| To do what you do that you must |
| When the things that you hold |
| Can fall and be shattered |
| Or run through your fingers like dust |
