Cities of Gold
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.
Everybody's going to America
Making sure all their dreams come true
I'm not sure what my dreams are made of
They're always changing
They're always changing
All my plans, like ice cream vans in the summer
They go by with hope still in my eyes
Something's always pulling at my wrist now
I try to forget it
I try to forget it
Am I young enough to be told?
Am I old enough to be old enough?
In the eyes of the sun
In the light of the newest one
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold
Take my hand and lead me to the river
Whatever's floating by will be my raft
We're all headed for bigger waters
Hold on to each other, hold on to each other
Am I young enough to be told?
Am I old enough to be old enough?
In the eyes of the sun
In the light of the newest one
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold
Am I young enough to be told?
Am I old enough to be old?
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold, cities of gold
Cities of gold
