THE POWER OF GOLD DAN FOGELBERG (These lyrics are not accurate, just my best guess) The story is told of the Power of gold and it's Lure on the unsuspecting It glitters and shines It badgers and binds And constantly needs protecting Balance the cost of the soul you lost Without dreams your life is sold Are you under the power of gold? The letters are calls got you Climbing the walls And everyone wants a payday They beg to remind you Of love left behind you You know the past is a loser The face that you're wearing is different now That the days run hot and cold Are you under the power of gold? The power of gold Ooo-ooo, ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh Ooo-ooo, ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh, ahh You're a creature of habit Caught like a rabbit Scared of a fear you can't name You're overly loyal There's no one before ya No man that can tell it's a game Balance the cost of the soul you lost Without dreams your life is sold Tell me that you're free Of the power of gold? The power of gold You're never a lonely And why does it loom? But there's something about The soul that deserves you You're never a lonely And why does it loom? But there's something about The soul that deserves you You're never a lonely And why does it loom? But there's something about The soul that deserves you From: Dan Watkins
