Dreams of Gold

[Verse]
I walk these streets of shadows lost in my own fight
Dreams of gold are fleeting they're gone by morning light
Wasted at the bottom of bottles long since dry
I wish I had her waiting but my truth ain't worth a lie

[Chorus]
Eyes that catch the starlight hands so soft and true
But I ain't good enough no not enough for you
The mirror tells a story of battles I can't win
Dreams of gold are haunted by the man I might have been

[Verse 2]
Empty promises whisper they echo in my mind
Seeking out redemption where hope is hard to find
I watch the dawn in silence the sun just turns away
The night is my companion in the dark I choose to stay

[Chorus]
Eyes that catch the starlight hands so soft and true
But I ain't good enough no not enough for you
The mirror tells a story of battles I can't win
Dreams of gold are haunted by the man I might have been

[Bridge]
Shadows fade when morning breaks but my heart still feels the cold
In the silence of my longing there are dreams of gold
Maybe someday she'll be there when I've conquered every fight
Until then I'll keep dreaming through the endless night

[Chorus]
Eyes that catch the starlight hands so soft and true
But I ain't good enough no not enough for you
The mirror tells a story of battles I can't win
Dreams of gold are haunted by the man I might have been
