Good As Gold
THREE LAWS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The sun is breaking through the clouds
Winter is leaving us now
Shadows on the road to Harrow
Shadows on the road to Rome
Shadows on the road where I′ve been riding alone
And the children always notice that it's heart is missing
They′re listening to the whistle of the wheels
We ride in time
Our hearts beat and chime
As the sun sinks over this city
Wind eclipses sound as I go to ground
You fade out
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
I need you, I need you, I need you to warm me please
So I still hope with this spring
I'll be clean like new again
Good as gold and sparkling
I'll be pure, I′ll be sacrosanct
We′re no good together
You're no good for me
I′m no good at all
Still I ask you please
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
I need you, I need you, I need you to warm me please
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is
Freezing
When the world is
When the world is




Freezing
I need you, I need you, I need you to warm me please
