Streets of Gold

Verse 1

When my curtains finally close 

And my open sign goes dark

When my clock hits six below

And my daisies push on up

I hope I'll see you on the streets of gold

When my fireplace grows cold 

And the finish line's been crossed

When my flame gives up the ghost 

And my dust returns to dust

I hope I'll see you on the streets of gold

Chorus

‘Cause there's a thousand conversations we never had 

And a million tiny words still left unsaid

And I know there's so much time we can't get back

But I believe there's so much time still left to have

So until our roads both lead back home

I’ll be dreaming ‘bout the streets of gold

Verse 2

When I think of those dumb jokes 

That we used to text about

I still see your smile grow

From the corners of your mouth

I know we'll be laughing on the streets of gold 

On a Sunday afternoon 

As the week is fading out

I miss watching old cartoons 

While you're snoring on the couch

I know that you're resting on the streets of gold

Chorus

‘Cause there's a thousand conversations we never had 

And a million tiny words still left unsaid

And I know there's so much time we can't get back

But I believe there's so much time still left to have

So until our roads both lead back home

I’ll be dreaming ‘bout the streets of gold

Bridge

You're always on my mind

But time is ever marching on

In this present dark of night 

I'm slowly waiting for the dawn

Though the past is far behind

And all the best is yet to come

Oh well I still have some time until 

I follow where you've gone

Though time is slow

It won't be long

Until we both can sing this song

So until our roads

Both lead back home

I'll be dreaming 'bout the streets of gold

Dreaming 'bout the streets of gold
