Golden Thread

There’s lights on in a window
And a sign post in the snow
There’s a golden coin beneath you pillow
There’s parachutes above you,
And life boats below
And a heart that loves you, yeah I think you know

There’s treasure maps well hidden
And diamonds in the dirt
There’s a golden thread weaved into your shirt
There’s a kiss for every tear that rolls down your cheek
And words I shouldn’t hear and words you shouldn’t speak.

So tell me one more lie my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie my dear

Well there’s whiskey and blankets and a bonfire when you’re cold
I’ll hold a golden breath ‘til I’m silver and old
With only hope to keep alive, and only time to kill
There’s a fool that loved you, and he loves you still

So tell me one more lie my dear
Whisper softly so nobody hears
Keep me hanging on for another year
Oh tell me one more lie my dear

Spin me one more tale sweetheart
Weave golden needle and thread trough my heart
Whisper all the things you know I long to hear
Oh tell me one more lie my dear
