"On The Gold And Silver" lyrics

"On The Gold And Silver"

From the hay the pair arise
Sun and moon on either side
Clean the soot from cheek and thigh
Soothe the burns with dew that's gathered
Sun the driver of the day
Heat that bucks and dreams that fray
Needs awaken, bellies ache
All the grief you can imagine

On the gold we've been waiting
On the gold and the silver we arrive

In the roses hide again
Find perfection's damaging
The sensual resides within
Rest here you'll find the answer

On the gold we've been waiting
On the gold and the silver we arrive
