Telluride
Now the girls in telluride do it like this
Cross their fingers when they kiss you
Dont say nothing behind your back
And they dont take nothin that they dont give back
Take the gold into telluride
Work all winter in the tomboy mine
Dreamin of what well do
When the snow finally ends
And the spring breaks through
Well load up the wagon & set the little one by our side
Take the gold into telluride
Id like to lay you down on a cannonball bed
Put a soft feather pillow down by your head
Intertwine flowers into a maidens veil
Wake you in the morning
Now shes wailing take the gold into telluride
Aint nothingll stop an avalanche when its sliding
Once the wagon starts to roll, you cant turn the mule and the brakes dont hold;
You end up in the valley with the little one by your side
Take the gold into telluride.
Lace curtains for the windows,
Dreams torn from a catalog page.
We may wander where the wind blows
You change your views but our love wont change
She gonna climb you high on top of a hill
Fall asleep laughing with the whipporwill
Intertwined flowers in the matrons ring
Wake you in the morning
Now shes singing take the gold into telluride
I loved my winter with a teenage bride
Dreamin of what well do
When the snow finally ends
And the spring breaks through
Well load up the wagon, set the little one by our side
Take the gold into telluride
Take the gold into telluride

Telluride
(troy verges, brett james)
When I was nineteen I threw my stuff in the car
I headed up to the rockies, got a job at this bar
Selling beer to the locals, just barely getting by
On the tips from the rich kids, there on daddys dime
But when I saw her walk in one night
I knew that Id be all right in
Telluride, the snow falling down
I was waking up in that sleepy little town
In her eyes my world came so alive
I never will forget the moment she arrived
In telluride
We spent that whole winter tangled up by a fire
Casting shadows on the cabin wall, drowning in desire
Confessing all our secrets and laughing out loud
So high up on that mountain, I thought wed never come down
It was a dream we were living in
And I was the happiest Id ever been in
Telluride, the snow falling down
Waking up with her in that sleepy little town
In her eyes, my world came so alive
I never will forget all those sleepless nights
In telluride
Telluride, whoa-oh-oh
It ended just like a movie scene
And I had to play the part
Of the lover who stood there and watched her leave
And me with the frozen heart
In telluride, the snow falling down
Standing there alone in that sleepy little town
In her eyes, my world came so alive
I never will forget the day she said goodbye
In telluride, the snow falling down
Waking up with her in that sleepy little town
In her eyes, my world came so alive
I never will forget all those sleepless nights
In telluride

Colorado Christmas
Looking out the window of this hollywood hotel,
Youd never know that it was christmas eve.
The billboards and the neon took the place of silver bells,
And the temperature is 84 degrees.
I can hear the traffic on the crowded strip below
As the palm trees poke their heads above the scene
Theres not a single reindeer and it hardly ever snows,
And santa drives a rolls royce limosine.
But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air
From telluride to boulder down below
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow
I remember christmases when I was just a boy
In the morning I would run to see the tree.
And the carolers on the hillside sang their songs of christmas joy
Well, I always thought they sang them just for me.
Now the sun is setting in the california sky
And I cant find the spirit anywhere
So I think its time for me to tell los angeles goodbye
Im going back home toook for christmas there
But all along the rockies you can feel it in the air
From telluride to boulder down below
The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere
Is a quiet christmas morning in the colorado snow

3 Chains O Gold
If I dont think about the fact that she left me
If I dont see the pearls fall from the sky
If I dont hear the accusations of blasphemy
If I dont feel the tears in my eyes
This is the best day of my life
U say ull call me and then and then u dont
Ill want 2 kiss u and then I wont
We both do nothing and call it love
Is this love?
Is this love?
This morning I wanted a cup of coffee
But I didnt have any cream
Last night I wanted some inspiration
But I didnt have any dreams
Coupled with the fact that u belong 2 another
Whose name is self-righteousness
So evil girl, if one of us has a date
With the undertaker, which one will it be?
U can cry 4 ever, but ull get no sympathy
This is the best day of my life
Ive got 3 chains o gold
And they will shine 4 ever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
Ive got 3 chains o gold
And they will shine 4 ever
They are the nucleus of my soul
Melt down, no, they will never
Give back the chains - if you dont you will die
Nothing should come between you and i
Ive got 3 chains o gold
And they will shine 4 ever
If one of us has 2 go
U will go before me
If one of us has 2 go (3 chains o gold)
U will go before me
(3 chains o gold)
U will go before me, baby (they will shine 4 ever)
Cuz I sho nuff say u will
(3 chains o gold)
(u will go before me)
(u will go before me)
(u will go before me)
(u will go before me)
Ive got 3 chains o gold
They gonna shine...
Forever, forever, forever
(3 chains o gold)

You Remind Me Of Gold
Baby, when I think about you
And thats when I think
I think about gold
You remind me of gold
And when I see the sunrise in the sky
And when I hear your brakes come squealing by
I forget
Everything Ive been told
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
Baby I always think about you
I think of the life and glory you hold
You remind me of gold
And even though there was no sun today
And though you are a thousand miles away
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold

Turn To Gold
SHINE!
I don't know why
all the fiction of your sleeping
doesn't visit you awake
I don't know how to get your storybook sunrise
to follow you above your cloudy day
all these gifts you left on you
with heaven painted on you
i wish this now with all my soul
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold
terrified the world will never turn to look at you
and the sun won't see you shine
she'll resign for rose cooked blush just from your smiling
let the water form a cry
only better luck should greet you
the road should rise to meet you
i wish this now with all i know
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold
loose inside your winter
feel the cold wind blowing
cutting through your head and through your ears
feel the fire growing
no more frozen danger
no more wrteched ice storm fear
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold
may all your visions turn to gold
to have and hold
may all your visions turn to gold

Gold
Theres a mountain and its mighty high
U cannot see the top unless u fly
And theres a molehill of proven ground
There aint no where 2 go if u hang around
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told
Whats the use of money if u aint gonna break the mold?
Even at the center of fire there is cold
All that glitters aint gold
All that glitters aint gold, mmm
Theres an ocean of despair
There are people livin there
Theyre unhappy each and every day
But hell is not fashion so what u tryin 2 say?
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told
Whats the use of money if u aint gonna break the mold?
Even at the center of fire there is cold
All that glitters aint gold, no no
All that glitters aint gold, no no
Theres a lady, 99 years old
If she led a good life, heaven takes her soul
Now thats a theory and if u dont wanna know
Step aside and make a way 4 those who want 2 go
Everybody wants 2 sell whats already been sold (sold)
Everybody wants 2 tell whats already been told (told)
Whats the use of bein young if u aint gonna get old? (old)
Even at the center of fire there is cold (cold)
All that glitters (glitters) aint gold, no no no no no
All that glitters aint gold
Alright
All that glitters, all that glitters, all that glitters.. aint gold
Na na na na na na na (gold {x4})

Plain Gold Ring
Earl s. burroughs
Plain gold ring on his finger he wore
It was where everyone could see
He belonged to someone, but not me
On his hand was a plain gold band
Plain gold ring has a story to tell
It was one that I knew too well
In my heart it will never be spring
Long as he wears a plain gold ring
Oh, oh
When nighttime comes a callin on me
I know why I will never be free
I cant stop these teardrops of mine
Im gonna love him till the end of time
Plain gold ring has but one thing to say
Ill remember till my dying day
In my heart it will never be spring
Long as he wears a plain gold ring
Plain gold ring on his finger he wore
Plain gold ring on his finger he wore
Plain gold ring on his finger he wore

If Teardrops Were Pennies
Wagon and dolly parton
An acre of diamonds Id offer to you
A solid gold mansion, an airplane or two
This whole world would be yours to have and to hold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
Chorus
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
Id have all the riches my pockets would hold
Id be oh so wealthy with treasures untold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.
The tears that have fallen wont buy you a thing
The heartaches you caused me wont pay for a ring
The love that I wanted would not have grown cold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold.

And heartaches arent gold

Heart Of Gold
Growing up isnt easy to do,
Especially for one who always knew,
You would always come up second best.
Is that why you have such bitterness?
The apple of your fathers eye,
And always by your brothers side.
Then a little sister came along,
And you found all the affection suddenly gone.
But underneath that cold exterior
I know youve got a heart of gold.
So aloof, so superior,
But youve got a heart of gold.
Watch out, dont get caught in the crossfire.
Watch out, shes still growing up, shes in a rage,
I guess shes reached that difficult age.
Growing up is very hard to do,
Everyone watching your every move.
Your private life always on view,
But jealously never really suited you.
But I know that
Underneath that rude exterior,
Theres got to be a heart of gold.
Underneath that hard exterior,
Is a little girl waiting to be told,
Youve got a heart of gold.
Shes got a heart of gold.
I couldnt understand your attitude.
I only wanted to take a photograph of you,
But I was shocked when I heard what you had to say.
You picked up my camera, threw it away,
I didnt really mean to ruin your day.
Now I see youve got a little girl of your own.
Little princess certainly grown,
And theres a man, hes smiling at you.
He must have been the one who always knew.
You had a heart of gold.
Underneath that rude exterior,
Youve got a heart of gold.
So aloof, so superior,
But youve got a heart of gold.
Underneath that rude exterior,
Youve got a heart of gold.
Underneath that hard exterior,
Youve got a heart of gold.
Watch her, shell give you a broadside,
But I know that inside,
She got a heart of gold.

Love Is Never Easy
(j. macrae, b. morrison)
Love should be easy
Its such a natural thing
Nothing feels like the feeling
Only love can bring
Love can be laughter
Or heartaches in disguise
You could love a lifetime
And never realize
Chorus:
Love is never easy
Dreams are always hard to hold
Love is never easy
But its more precious than gold
More precious than gold
More precious than gold
Love is forever
Until the day that it ends
Love can just be for lovers
Love can be for friends
So dont give up looking
And dont be afraid to fall
Cause when you find that one love
Youll know its worth it all
Repeat chorus x2

Somewhere My Love
Somewhere my love, there will be songs to sing
Although the snow covers the hope of Spring
Somewhere a hill, blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams all that your heart can hold.
Someday, we'll meet again, my love
Someday, whenever the Spring breaks through
You'll come to me out of the long ago
Warm as the wind, soft as the kiss of snow.
'Til then my sweet, think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again
Out on my own, think of me now and then
God speed my love 'til you are mine again.

See Sassy
See sassy wake up shes ? ? ? ? ?
Thinks/things you tell by the ring on her finger
Cant you tell by her fifty dollar shoes
That shes confusing love with the people she uses
But dont worry about nothing, nothing at all
Its just a temporary conscience?
Even springs? got to fall
See sassy shes a little girl
She looks so ? ? ? she looks so weak?
Papa says that shes too cute for words
So sassy never learned how to scream
But dont worry bout nothing, doll, nothin at all
Its just a temporary conscience
And even springs(? ) got the fall
Hush you baby dont you cry
Papas gonna feed you some good advice
Hush you baby dont miss this(? )
Papas gonna buy you a pretty dress
As though that could mend your heart
As though it could keep you from being torn apart
As though it were your destiny
To face every man you meet
On your knees
See sassy wake up on the other side
Stares at a/her wedding dress and starts to cry
Shes got big eyes but they dont see too clear
Otherwise she never would have ended up here
But dont worry about nothing doll nothing at all
Its just a temporary conscience
And even saints/streets/straights got to fall.
Yeah yeah
See sassy wake up shes a lover?
See sassy wake up shes alone?
See sassy wake up shes alone

Buried Treasure
Now if the aim in your life is to settle me down
I couldnt change my point of view
I got a lady in red at the back of my head
But the women in white is you
Do you wanna be the only one
Fade away in the morning sun
I could love you all of my life
You are my wife
Havent I let you know
We dont need no buried treasure
No buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still go you in my soul
Well its a long way down and you gotta get up
You got to figure on a master plan
You couldnt do it if you dont get ready
When youre beaten by the other man
Do you wanna be the last one in
Play the game that you just dont win
I can see me making you cry
Saying goodbye
But I could never let you go
We dont need no buried treasure
No buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still got you in my soul
Well youre taking my life in the palm of your hand
Make you mine for another day
Aint nobody doesnt need anybody
When the good times turn away
I dont wanna be the lonely one
Fade away in the evening sun
I could love you all of my life
You are my wife
Havent I told you so
We dont need no buried treasure
No, buried treasure - we dont need it
We dont stand on ceremony
I love you only - Im proud of it
You can never be all you wanna be
When youre living for gold
We dont need no buried treasure
I still got you
I still got you in my soul

14 Karat Gold
If you see me smile dont think Im acting strange
I got my just reward for all my pains
I you see me on the tv talking proud
Please understand if I dont talk too loud
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set em loose and let em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin hot n cold
Shes more than money
Shes 14 karat gold
If you wonder why Im acting up this way
Gonna cash my chips Im leavin town today
I got more love than I could ever spend
So long, farewell, good-bye, this is the end
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set em loose and let em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin hot n cold
Shes more than money
Shes 14 karat gold
If you get hit by the bug that bit on me
If you get caught with something soft and sweet
If you get found with something you cant waste
Then listen bud, let me give you a taste
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set em loose and let em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin hot n cold
Shes more than money
Shes 14 karat gold
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set em loose and let em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery

Theres Gold In The Mountains
(words & music by giant - baum - kaye)
There are lots of girls in the mountains
And theyre worth their weight in gold
When theyre in my arms with their lovin charms
A treasure chest I hold
Well theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills
I dont need no city women with their diamonds and frills
Theres gold in the mountains and oh what scenery
The prettiest girls I ever did see
Theres such beauty there in the mountains
You can feel your knees growin weak
Every single boy feels the height of joy
When he climbs that mountain peak
Well theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills
I dont need no city women with their diamonds and frills
Theres gold in the mountains and oh what scenery
The prettiest girls I ever did see
I said theres gold in the mountains, love in the hills

Adonis
1.
Each of us like you
has died once,
has passed through drift of wood-leaves,
cracked and bent
and tortured and unbent
in the winter-frost,
the burnt into gold points,
lighted afresh,
crisp amber, scales of gold-leaf,
gold turned and re-welded
in the sun;
each of us like you
has died once,
each of us has crossed an old wood-path
and found the winter-leaves
so golden in the sun-fire
that even the live wood-flowers
were dark.
2.
Not the gold on the temple-front
where you stand
is as gold as this,
not the gold that fastens your sandals,
nor thee gold reft
through your chiselled locks,
is as gold as this last year's leaf,
not all the gold hammered and wrought
and beaten
on your lover's face.
brow and bare breast
is as golden as this:
each of us like you
has died once,
each of us like you
stands apart, like you
fit to be worshipped.
