Gold Dust

If your eyes are blue you know the rest

Champagne if it's very cool

It's never very formal how you dress

For oysters by the swimming pool

Then slip away into the mountainside

Like the man in the lazy e'

It's great to have a place where you can hide

Why you must amazes me

Chorus

Golden,

Where are you?

Sold on gold dust

I shuttled all around america

From new york to los angeles

Nervous breakdown later, there we were

From liberty to redwood trees

A friend of mine, she hitched from east to west

In time to hear my final song

It seems to me she tried her very best

She is a good companion

(chorus)

He stores away the moments of her smiles

As if they were rare butterflies

Stalks his prey for miles and miles and miles

Then barters for the merchandise

When life it drags the likes of me around

Just when we need some time alone

You have a simple mansion underground

Without address or telephone

(chorus)
