Too many times I’ve been fooled
Too many times I’ve been ruled
Not this time I won’t be caught
I won’t be sold… I won’t be bought.
 
I’ve seen you bathed in… seen you bathed in gold.
 
Fantastic nights and visions unfold
Wrong decisions and little lies told
A fleeting moment from the past
A little something that never last.
 
I’ve seen you bathed in… seen you bathed in gold
Bathed in gold 
I’ve watched you drowning in them
In them lies you told… lies you told.
 
Don’t you cry now, no, no… don’t shed a tear
Don’t you cry now, no, no… at least not here
Don’t you cry now… my lover in gold.
 
Spiralled shimmers of golden light
Cutting through the dark of night
A silhouette of your soul
I believed in all of those lies that you told.
 
I’ve seen you bathed in… seen you bathed in gold
Bathed in gold 
I’ve watched you drowning in them
In them lies you told… lies you told.
 
Don’t you cry now, no, no… don’t shed a tear
Don’t you cry now, no, no… at least not here
Don’t you cry now…
 
My lover in gold.
