Song language: English
The Gold in the Mountain of Our Madness |
They started up the hill |
With their young lives exploding still |
They love to dream and run |
They had the grass and the trees and the sun |
They dreamed of the gold they’d find |
At the top of the hill as they climbed |
No one would ever doubt |
Their spirit and strength would run out |
But the hill was steep and long |
They never thought they’d be wrong |
It wasn’t a hill at all |
It was a mountain a thousand feet tall |
But with the gold still in their thoughts |
They used their young lives to climb and climb |
By the time they got up to the peak |
They were old and they were weak |
There was no gold that they could find |
It was all just in their minds |
They had dreamed and they had loved |
They found the grass and the trees and the sun |
They said «What do we do now?» |
Spend the rest of our lives climbing back down? |
Or we can treasure what we find |
And make it golden in our minds |
