LADY IN GOLD

LADY IN GOLD

She walks with ease, her skirt catches the breeze
The wind whispers her very name
The branches bow as if they have allowed
Her sacred soul amongst their frame

She speaks to crows, a language no one knows
The grass does tremble ‘neath her feet
So long the earth has yearned for one like her
With eyes so bright and breath so sweet

CHORUS
Oh, she’s taken hold
Lady wears a cloak of silver and gold
Oh, I must be bold
To win the favor of my lady, my lady in gold

She reads the stars that guide her from afar
Perhaps the sky was once her home
The moonglow’s bright upon her skin so white
The tides stir deep within her bones

BRIDGE
Just what I would give
(Catch my breath as I see her pass)
To twine myself to her
(Bare feet tramping on the green grass)
For none other I live
(Lovely creature, look upon me)
Of this I am sure
(Silver and gold all that I see)

CHORUS
