when the gold runs out

Sweet brown eyes Your father's child Turnin' up soil in your hand Crystal skies Lullabies Singin' again with a travelin' band Oh Comin' around the pass Told myself I wouldn't look back But darling what a lovely view And the water runs like a young heart does Free as it is blue When the gold runs out of this mining town I'll be glad that I passed through Cabin floors Creaking doors Sneaking in in the dead of the night Are the mountains waiting? What would they say if We asked for more daylight Comin' around the pass Told myself I wouldn't look back But darling what a lovely view And the water runs like a young heart does Free as it is blue When the gold runs out of this mining town I'll be glad that I passed through The letter on your desk The night I left You can't unread it The songs I played The hell I raised I didn't mean it And on the that bench My name's still sketched Where the sun don't set And the highway ends The highway ends Comin' around the pass Told myself I wouldn't look back But darling what a lovely view And the water runs like a young heart does Free as it is blue When the gold runs out of this mining town And it fades in my rear view I'll be glad that I passed through
