Lyrics

Nothing Gold Can Stay

By trick or chance the dance of life a circle
In the blinking eye the shooting star is gone
There's no further down the road
The trial is over, Lord, no light his load

Nothing gold can stay
I came to learn the hard way
Nothing gold can stay

Hell, looking back the years seem a moment
Reflecting on what could have might have been
The times go by in turns
They come to end; my candle burns

Nothing gold can stay
As sure as night must come to day
Nothing gold can stay
