Age Of Kings

Pause at the stone tower in the foothills

Why should we hide from anyone?

Held you in my arms for the first time that day

Felt like God's anointed when you didn't push me away

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings



Lean on the concrete walls in shadow

Why should we wait to throw the switch?

Felt your name burn in like a tattoo into my skin

Rain on the clay tiles all night your head nestled beneath my chin

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings



In the lost age where the jewels hide

And the salt sticks in the waiting stone still warm



Small chambers shrinking till they vanish

Wolves in the hallway gaining ground

Reach down to the moment when I should have said something true

Shadows and their sources now stealing away with you

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings

Gold light shining on so many things in the age of kings
