And the Gold of Their Bodies Songtext
von Jerry Joseph

And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
Will always shine, will always shine
And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
Transcending time, transcending time
From a distance it seems that they′re waving
But I fear that they are beyond saving
And as the light of heaven sets surrounding
They're not really waving, they are drowning
And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
Reflecting light, reflecting light
And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
They shimmer in white, they shimmer in white
It appears they′re happy and behaving
Their eyes reveal a longing and a craving
Of dreams where hand in hand they both are flying


But they're not really laughing, they are crying
And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
Like tears of pearls, like tears of pearls
And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies
From a golden world, in a golden world
Children's joy and lunatics still raving
We behold the silent grace amazing
And as the light of heaven set surrounding
Hark the herald angel trumpets sounding
They′re not really waving
No, they′re not really waving
No, they're not really waving
They are drowning
They are drowning
And the gold of their bodies
