Album: Love Over Gold

Love Over Gold Lyrics

You walk out on the high wire 

You're a dancer on thin ice 

You pay no heed to the danger 

And less to advice 

Your footsteps are forbidden 

But with knowledge of your sin 

You throw your love to all the strangers 

And caution to the wind 

And you go dancing through doorways 

Just to see what you will find 

Leaving nothing to interfere 

With the crazy balance of your mind 

And when you finnaly reappear 

At the place where you came in 

You've thrown your love to all the strangers 

And caution to the wind 

It takes lover over gold 

And mind over matter 

To do what you do that you must 

When the things that you hold 

Can fall and be shattered 

Or run through your fingers like dust 

The best rockband... ever
