There is no gold out there
There is no gold You hang your head down There’s something you hide in your hand And you hold it as tight as you can Until you can’t bear the fact that there’s nothing there To let go of or hold on to And there never was There is no gold out there There is no gold The secret to being a man Is pretending that you have Something other than a fistful of sand That you hold as tight as you can Until you can’t bear the fact that there’s nothing there To let go of or hold on to And there never was There is no gold out there There is no gold
FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
We’re running out of time Your heart is on the line Do you know the route To the fountain of youth There’s no life in this city The minds are off the lights are on No stars, no hope on the horizon The night is just like the dawn But I hear there’s a hole in the sky So I am gonna pile up everything of use Trade in my shoes for some feathers made to fly And go look for the fountain of youth We’re running out of time If you’re ready for the climb We’ll chase after the goose Where’s the mountain of truth As I walk through the forest at dusk I gaze up beyond the firmament As I wonder what creatures may lurk A light pours down upon this monument I believe there’s a hole in the sky So I am going to pile up everything of use I am going to build a tower to get high Looking for the fountain of youth We’re running out of time Your heart is just like mine There is no absolute There’s no fountain of youth |
