I just sit and wait
For the nightfall by the window
The dangerous beam of streetlamps
So easily goes through all the delicate figures
I just sit and wait
For when the steps echo in the stairway
Finally, even though I promised
That I wouldn't ask him to come again
How could I even tell
How much I fear for him
I remember a thought, violent,
Power easily wipes away everything in a flash
And how I wish
That you would be with me longer than just a moment
But I get to be just a mere shadow
Of everything you could get in the world
I have paid for all those wasted moments
If you don't believe me, just look at me
So fly always in the shadow, goldwing
Money has so much power
Sly men sow it in the lights
Men who respond to good with evil
Fly always in the shadow, goldwing
Money has so much power
Sly men sow it in the lights
Men who respond to good with evil
With their flashlights they are looking for you
Touch me so that
I will believe it to be something else than compassion without love
Which is easy to leave behind and forget in a moment
Touch me so that
I won't notice it to be pity, only you can do that and even though I pray
That you would take me beyond the times for a moment
I have paid for all those wasted moments
If you don't believe me, just look at me
So fly always in the shadow, goldwing
Money has so much power
Sly men sow it in the lights
Men who respond to good with evil
Fly always in the shadow, goldwing
Money has so much power
Sly men sow it in the lights
Men who respond to good with evil
With their flashlights they are looking for you…
