Lyrics
The Chosen One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Gold and silver walk the main street
Sons and lovers learn to suffer
Born in shadow where we first meet
Dreams that money cannot offer
Swollen river I've been thinking
Words of passion and sorrow
Make believing is the real thing
Here today or gone tomorrow
April fever is no stranger
Night and morning in my shadow
World of pleasure and danger
Take my spirit - I must follow
