Stairway of Gold

Sometimes when you stay on track,
You miss what it's all about.
And in the end, you can't be content,
Until you've figured it out.
Just like today with the sky covered grey,
My feet couldn't find their way back.
So I took my life, and weighed it with strife.
Decided that I'd leave the track.
Could never have guessed what I'd find.
If you're ever that way go see it some time.
My stairway of gold.
Behind lay the footprints of the righteous I'm told.
Stairway of gold.
One look for me, forever I'm sold.
The rain came in fast at 25 past.
Before long I was soaking wet.
I didn't want to leave my discovery,
For fear that I would forget.
So I sort advice from a wise young device.
She told me I couldn't go wrong,
And then she said, document.
Now put that shit into a song.
It's not far away from the Old Barracks track.
A little bit further and over the back...
My stairway of gold.
Behind lay the footprints of the righteous I'm told.
Stairway of gold.
One look for me, forever I'm sold.
It's not far away from the Old Barracks track.
A little bit further and over the back...
My stairway of gold.
Behind lay the footprints of the righteous I'm told.
Stairway of gold.
One look for me, forever I'm sold.....
Behind lay the footprints of the righteous I'm told...
One look for me, forever I'm sold.

The sadness you see when you look at yourself
You can't find its home today
The buildings that fall in your heart
Will crumble to walls of grey, yeah...
The one you were with, the one you did love
It only took one to hate
I always knew I've waited for you
And forever I will wait
From the mind to the heart is a barbed wire fence
And the words you wont let me say
If I had one wish I'd wish me to be
The one, the one to wish you away, yeah..
The one you were with, the one you did love
It only took one to hate
I always knew I've waited for you
And forever I will wait
Yeah... The one you were with, the one you did love
It only took one to hate
I always knew I've waited for you
And forever I will wait
