Once You Had Gold

Once you had gold,
Once you had silver

Then came the rains,
out of the blue

Ever and always,
always and ever

Time gave both darkness
and dreams to you.

Now you can see
Spring becomes autumn,
Leaves become gold
Falling from view.
Ever and always.
Always and ever.
No-one can promise
a dream come true,
Time gave both darkness
and dreams to you.


What is the dark;
Shadows around you,
Why not take heart
In the new day?
Ever and always.
Always and ever.
No-one can promise
a dream for you,
Time gave both darkness
and dreams to you.
