gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
lean on the concrete walls in shadow
why should we wait to throw the switch
felt your name burning like a tattoo into my skin
rain on the clay tiles all night, your head nestled beneath my chin
gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
A E
in the lost age where the jewels hide
G D
and the sword sticks in the waiting stone
A
still warm

small chambers shrinking till they vanish
wolves in the hallway gaining ground
reach down to the moment when I should have said something true
shadows and their sources now stealing away with you
gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
