The Weight of Dreams lyrics

All across the west we travelled wayward fore

Find the way to dreams in gold

Heaven sent us here to meet the hallowed shore

To bring the wealth that we had sold

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine

Spoiled wine tastes so sweet, we have gone blind

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine

Spoiled wine tastes so sweet, we have gone blind

We stole from her a cloak of studded majesty

The queen is dead, we robbed her grave

You can still bathe in the river but it ran dry

And all of us have turned away

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine

Spoiled wine tastes so sweet, we have gone blind

Gold mines melting men in the sunshine

Spoiled wine tastes so sweet, we have gone blind

Ah-ah-oh!

Ah-ah-oh!
