„Goin‘ for Gold“ are some lyrics I wrote for a very good friend of mine. A kind of remittance work so to speak. About ambitions… and who hasn’t?
I see
shining places at the end of the scenery
I see
empty faces at the edge of my sanity
this is the journey I want to take
this is the dream I’ll dream awake
oh, goin‘ for gold
for the life
oh, goin‘ for gold
let life unfold
I know
a place to move right to at the end of all time
I go
where the edge of my world meets the sky, I’m
on my journey and I feel fright
on my pillow late at night
oh, goin‘ for gold
for the life
oh, goin‘ for gold
let life unfold
I breeze
the emerald air of the road that I go down
I freeze
for the people and dreams of that lonely town
but it’s that road I’ve got to take
and it’s this town I’ve got to shake
oh, goin‘ for gold
for the life
oh, goin‘ for gold
let life unfold
