Love Over Gold

You walk out on the high wire

You're a dancer on thin ice

You pay no heed to the danger

And less to adviceYour footsteps are forbidden

But with knowledge of your sin

You throw your love to all the strangers

And caution to the windAnd you go dancing through doorways

Just to see what you will find

Leaving nothing to interfere

With the crazy balance of your mindAnd when you finally reappear

At the place where you came in

You've thrown your love to all the strangers

And caution to the windIt takes lover over gold and mind over matter

To do what you do that you must

When the things that you hold can fall and be shattered

Or run through your fingers like dust
