Searching Gold

We left our goods behind overnight They told us there was a place to find We were all wrapped up in winter coats Searching gold in the midnight cold We traveled arm in arm, at the same pace Keeping each other warm in the rising storm Searching gold Where's the gold That we'll share As we share the road? Tree trunks had fallen down on our way Rocks of the ice age that would not stir We lifted all that troubled our haste One spell, one voice for one single aim Searching gold, will we find it? Where's the gold That we'll share As we share the road? One step left, I'm bound to lead the herd They're only trailing behind, what can I say They're only trailing behind, what can I say As the horizon cleared we let go of our hands Each one hurried to be the first where gold flows out Oh, silent rejoicing when one of us stumbled Oh, silent rejoicing when one of us failed
