Love Over Gold
Yeah you walk out on the high wire
You’re a dancer on ice
You pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
And your footsteps are forbidden
But with a knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
Yeah you go dancing through the doorways
Just to see what you’re gonna find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
And when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You’ve thrown your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
It takes love over the gold
You’ve got the mind over matter
When you do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold
Well they can fall and be shattered
They could run through your fingers like dust ..
