You Take The Gold - Beachwood Sparks

You take the gold and

I’ll take the forest

You can have what is bought and sold

Cause I can’t take much more of this

My tears of green will always

Give me shade

When we come around again

Things won’t be looking quite the same

The trees will all be gone and

They’ll keep rolling on

Cause they don’t care about you or me…

When I came back home again

I knew that things just wouldn’t be the same

Like when loneliness was gone and

I kept rollin' on

Because there was a you

And a me
