Stephanie Mabey Time And Gold Lyrics

Men have tried for centuries
To set us free
Through alchemy
Stirring metals in the heat
To create the key
To our immortality
Pouring all their greatest hope
Under the microscope,
Searching for homemade gold
Some things are to be good to be true
Even the scientists knew
That soon they'd be gone too
Like me and you

It's okay to let go
You gave it all you had
And you know time and gold
Were never meant to last
And when they fade some day
We're left with who we loved along the way

If a ripple in time
Let you rewind
Who would you go find If you were able
They'd pull up a seat,
Have something good to eat
Tell me who you'd like to see at your table
Oh, oh
Waves spread out across the beach
And at the edge of their reach
You're walking here with me
I don't care what scientists say
Long past the edges of space
I'll recognise your face

And it's okay to let go
You gave it all you had
And you know time and gold
Were never meant to last
And when they fade some day
We're left with who we loved along the way
We're left with who we loved along the way
