Take This Heart of Gold

Mandolin Orange -Take This Heart of Gold

Take this heart of gold and melt it down

I'll come around I'll come around

I'm treading lightly in your eyes

And honey I can't live a lie

But a life without you could never steal me now

With so much time to spend

Why paint this house again

When the floorboards creak and pull you from your slumber

Well I'd hold you 'til the end

But honey even oaks must bend

If we intend to stick with one another

So take this heart of gold and melt it down

I'll come around I'll come around

I'm treading lightly in your eyes

And honey I can't live a lie

But a life without you could never steal me now

Out the door and down the drive

There's a part of me that tries

To keep that highway's call to me away

And another further still

That sadly never will

Feel at home no matter how long I may stay

So take this heart of gold and melt it down

I'll come around I'll come around

I'm treading lightly in your eyes

And honey I can't live a lie

But a life without you could never steal me now
