Gold Into Straw lyrics
Songwriters: Benson, Brendan;
I m writing the words to this song with a poison pen
I m turning a straw into gold and then back again
When you used to be my friend
Before you turned your back on me in the end
I m building a box made of wood from a tree that I grew
I m sewing the lining in silk that I spun just for you
And I lay you to rest
I put flowers on your chest, on your chest
And it s happened again
Pull a fast one on me
And I ve got to be dumb
If it s always in fun
I m digging a hole with my hands six feet in the ground
I m chiseling this epitaph for a stone that I found
Meet this friend indeed
May he rest in peace and get on with
I m learning to live with the guilt of remembering
I m willing to try to forgive and forget this thing
That s gone too long
You were right, I was wrong, so wrong
And it s happened again
Pull a fast one on me
And I ve got to be dumb
If it s always in fun
But enough s enough
Hold my breath while I pass
While I pass you by
And it s happened again
Pull a fast one on me
You can undo what you ve done
And it s always in fun
If it happens again
Pull a fast one on me
Then I ve got to be dumb
And in more ways than one
And it s always in fun
And in more ways than one
And it s always in fun
And in more ways than one
And it s always in fun
And in more ways than one
