Dancing in Gold - The von Trapps

The further I hold my heart out

The harder it burns

Even though I could try to protect my soul

By turning my heart to stone

I’m better dead than alone

Love doesn’t make our lives easier at all

It can only make it worth the time

Dancing in Gold

God knows we’re cut out of bone (work hard and evolve?)

You can’t sell your youthful control

Not if you want to grow old

Run and return

Free turn and learn how to burn

You got to fight to keep soul

When you’re dancing in gold

ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah aaaaahhhh

Even though it’s good to be clean as snow

You’d better be dreading karma (?)

When the heads roll

Is it gambling with the precious few important things

While I’m dancing, still I’m trembling

I still have a home

How much would you risk to find the truth

And how far would you go to know it’s through

Dancing in gold

God knows we’re cut out of bone

You can’t sell your youthful control

Not if you want to grow old

Run and return

Free turn and learn how to burn

You got to fight to keep soul

When you’re dancing in gold
