Treasure

Erasure · Cowboy [1997]

I'm coming in, got the wood stove on

at the end of a treasured day

take off my hat and shoes

and i lay me down

lives been lost and fortunes won

a test of the will to survive

see where the shadow falls

and you stake your claim



CHORUS



I dream of trees and roads

i roam across the hills

the sky is big, the deepest blue,

the clouds like smoky trains



News coming in , goes nation wide

not a grain of truth to be heard

lie to an ancient tribe, in their mother tongue

wreaking havoc and wrecking lives

like a ball and chain to the skull

rise see the eagle fly

spirit can't be broken



I dream of trees and roads

i roam across the hills

the sky is big, the deepest blue,

the clouds like smoky trains



Bridge



I dream of trees and roads

i roam across the hills

the sky is big, the deepest blue,

the clouds like smoky trains
