Gold Into Straw lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Gold Into Straw lyrics Songwriters: Benson, Brendan; I m writing the words to this song with a poison pen I m turning a straw into gold and then back again When you used to be my friend Before you turned your back on me in the end I m building a box made of wood from a tree that I grew I m sewing the lining in silk that I spun just for you And I lay you to rest I put flowers on your chest, on your chest And it s happened again Pull a fast one on me And I ve got to be dumb If it s always in fun I m digging a hole with my hands six feet in the ground I m chiseling this epitaph for a stone that I found Meet this friend indeed May he rest in peace and get on with I m learning to live with the guilt of remembering I m willing to try to forgive and forget this thing That s gone too long You were right, I was wrong, so wrong And it s happened again Pull a fast one on me And I ve got to be dumb If it s always in fun But enough s enough Hold my breath while I pass While I pass you by And it s happened again Pull a fast one on me You can undo what you ve done And it s always in fun If it happens again Pull a fast one on me Then I ve got to be dumb And in more ways than one And it s always in fun And in more ways than one And it s always in fun And in more ways than one And it s always in fun And in more ways than one song lyrics
