Gold

I fantasize
You and I, screaming just to make them go faster
I shut my eyes
The two of us, running till we're out of laughter.

You're gold to me
Our light is fading
What's the use in crying
You know I'll always be there waiting
Softly now, reach out and make your pillow in my chest
From the playground of dreams
Where I don't mourn you anymore
You carved your name in my heart
So I can't break free from my past
And take a look at me now
Do you recognize me?

Long way from home
On a journey that I must make on my own
Through the playground of dreams
A shadow dancing all alone
You carved your name in my heart
Each initial etched so it would hurt
And take a look at me now
Do you recognize me?

I'm paralyzed
Broken ties, burned by our lack of answers
I shut my eyes
The two of us, running till we're out of laughter.

You're gold to me
Our light is fading
What's the use in crying
You know I'll always be there waiting
Softly now, reach out and make your pillow in my chest
From the playground of dreams
Where I don't mourn you anymore
You carved your name in my heart
So I can't break free from my past
And take a look at me now
Do you recognize me?

Softly, softly now
Paint the town
A crystal world where we were born
A vision built to last
So please don't deny me.

You carved your name in my heart
Each initial etched so it would hurt
And take a look at me now
Do you recognize me?
