Band Of Gold
This band of gold never meant much to me A link in the chain that the world wants to see A part of the show that the world asks you for You can do what you want behind any closed door This band of gold slips off easily But there's a mark underneath it anybody can see The sun and the wind, the years and the days Made that mark a part of me and it won't go away And just like that mark there's a part of my heart Your love protects from the storm And there I can be a child who's free Though my body is weary and worn And that band of gold is as big as the sky No ocean is wider-no mountain as high It's as soft as your kiss is and as warm as our bed And with that band of gold every day I thee wed From Letras Mania
