The Power Of Gold

[Verse 1] The story is told of the Power of gold And its lure on the unsuspecting It glitters and shines It badgers and blinds And constantly needs protecting [Pre-Chorus 1] Balance the cost of the soul you lost With the dreams you lightly sold Are you under The power of gold? [Refrain] The power of gold [Verse 2:] The letters and calls Got you climbing the walls And everyone wants a favor They beg to remind you Of times left behind you But you know the past is a loser [Pre-Chorus 2] The face you're wearing is different now And the days run hot and cold Are you under The power of gold? [Refrain] The power of gold [Verse 3] You're a creature of habit Run like a rabbit Scared of a fear you can't name Your own paranoia Is looming before you But nobody thinks that It's a game [Pre-Chorus 3] Balance the cost of the soul you lost With the dreams you lightly sold Then tell me That you're free Of the power of gold [Outro] The women are lovely The wine is superb But there's something about the song That disturbs you...
