Tori Amos - Gold Dust lyrics
Sights and sounds
Pull me back down
Another year
I was here
I was here
Whipping past
The reflecting pool
Me, you
Skipping school
And we make it up as we go along
We make it up 'cause we go along
You said
You raced from Langley
Pulling me underneath
A cherry blossom
Canopy
Do I have
Of course I have
Beneath my raincoat
I have your photographs
And the sun on your face
I'm freezing that frame
And somewhere Alfie cries
And says, "Enjoy his every smile
You can see in the dark
Through the eyes of Laura Mars"
How did it go so fast
You'll say as we are looking back
And then we'll understand
We held gold dust in our hands
Sights and sounds
Pull me back down
Another year
I was here
I was here
Gaslights
Glow in the street (flickering past)
Twilight held us in her palm
As we walked along
And we make it up as we go along
We make it up as we go along
Letting names hang in the air
What color hair (auburn crimson)
Autumn knowingly
Stared
And the day that she came
I'm freezing that frame
I'm freezing that frame
And somewhere Alfie smiles
And says, "Enjoy her every cry
You can see in the dark
Through the eyes of Laura Mars"
How did it go so fast
You'll say as we are looking back
And then we'll understand
We held gold dust in our hands
In our hands
