River of Gold

[Verse 1]
Well I don't know but I've been told
If you're lucky you'll find that river of gold
Well there's all kind of fortunes in the universe
But for the river of gold I got a powerful thirst
And the night is falling

Well I don't want to be some ornament wife
I don't need a lover for once in my life
Just want to get going before I'm too old
To drink for awhile from the river of gold
And the night is falling

[Chorus]
River of gold

[Bridge]
I seem to have lost my direction
Somehow, I've been afraid just to stick my head out
Travel alone 'till I get to where I'm bound

[Chorus]
That river of gold

[Verse 3]
Don't grab my hand don't stand in my way
I'll read the stars by night and the cards by day
And when the wheel goes round and the story is told
It was all for a dream of a river of gold
And the night came calling

[Chorus]
River of gold
