Searching for real gold......A never ending love story? Could it be, true love and faith are the only real gold?

lyrics

RIVER OF GOLD
JACKSON SLADE c 1998
PUBLISHED BY: COLD BEAUTY PUBLISHING


HE'S BEEN SO LONG OUT THERE
TILL IT FEELS LIKE HE LIVES IN A HOLE
N' NIGHT AFTER NIGHT HE FADES OUT OF SIGHT
THINKIN' 'BOUT A RIVER OF GOLD

HE'S BEEN LOST IN THE ARMS OF HIS PASSION
BROKE DOWN AND HOLDIN' HIS OWN
AND SOME TIMES IT SEEMS THE FIRE IN HIS DREAMS
IS LOCKED IN THE HEART OF A STONE

CHORUS WITH ALL EYE'S UPON HIM HIS BACK TO A KNIFE
HE TRIES TO LIVE BY THE WAYS HE'S BEEN TOLD
HE WANT'S SOMEONE BESIDE HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE
AND FALL IN A RIVER OF GOLD

HE'S WAS LOOKIN' FOR SOMEONE TO LOVE HIM
HOPING FOR SOMEONE TO HOLD
AND NIGHT AFTER NIGHT AS HE FADES OUT SIGHT
HE PRAYS FOR A LITTLE PEACE IN HIS SOUL

CHORUS: THEN ONE DAY BESIDE HIM WITH HER BACK TO A KNIFE LIVIN' THE WAY SHE'S BEEN TOLD
SHE WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SHARE IN HER LIFE
AND FALL IN A RIVER OF GOLD

(BRIDGE) 'N' THEY'RE TIRED OF LOOKING AT HARD TIMES
AND IT'S BROUGHT THEM DOWN TO THEIR KNEES
CAUSE SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE IN
AND TRUST IN THE THINGS YOU CAN'T SEE

CHORUS: SO WITH ALL EYE'S UPON THEM THEIR BACK TO A KNIFE, THEY'RE GONNA LIVE BY THE WAYS THEY'VE BEEN TOLD
WITH THE GOOD LORD BESIDE THEM FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES, AND FALL IN A RIVER OF GOLD.

Jackson Slade Lewisburg, Tennessee

"Style of music is hard to give a
specific Genre to.. My Spanish roots
come to the surface in my rhythms, and
melodies to some extent. I've always
loved all styles of music, and I guess
my motivation comes from loving how,
through music, we make the world
warmer and smaller, not so vast.
I guess you could say I'm
Rock/Country/Jazz/Pop/Blues/Latin Blues and a few more things too ugly to mention" ... more
