Gold Dust - Sandi Thom

His love was like gold dust

His desire took my lust

He sent shivers down my spine

His ghost echoes in my mind

The one heart I thought I could trust

His love was like Gold Dust

His love was my oxygen

He was my addiction

He played such a beautiful game

It used to drive me insane

The one heart it thought I could trust

His love was like Gold Dust

You don’t know what you feel as time moves on

You don’t know what you want until its lost and gone

I never realised that my heart could rust

Until love slipped through my fingertips like gold dust

Now his love won’t leave me alone

His words are on my tombstone

And tears won’t wash them away

I guess that’s the price you pay

To put faith in a heart you trust

His love was Gold Dust

You don’t know what you fear until you powerless

You don’t know what you want until your truly obsessed

I never realised that my heart could rust

Until love slipped through my fingertips like Gold Dust

His love was my final dance

With such innocent romance

The flowers will dry out with time

His ghost echoes in my mind

The one heart I thought I could trust

His love was like Gold Dust

The one heart I thought I could trust

His love was like Gold Dust

The one heart I thought I could trust

His love was like Gold Dust
