Brighter Than Gold - The Cat Empire

Four steps in the morning

Two steps in the day

Three steps in the evening and the darkness is ablaze

And all the angels cease, soldiers come step to the parade

Run out like a cheetah

Monkey’s in the blood

And what a piece of work is man who screams the name of love

And all his brothers, cousins, sisters and others hear it’s fuzz

All night awake

In the moonlight I’m with you

In the moonlight I’m with you

Brighter than gold!

Born on the horizon

Beam me through the sky

Some have seen what none can dream but life calls it a lie

And all the sinners, saints and winners just wink and walk on by

Brando’s in the forest, Nancy’s in the flood

The black swan makes a pirouette, the gods cry from above

And the rain keeps falling on bare feet in the mud

All night awake

In the moonlight I’m with you

In the moonlight I’m with you

Brighter than gold!

Come Northern nights from Norway

Come sunrise from the East

Come Wicked Witches in the West, we’re South-bound with the beat

And all the lions, prides and preachers come down into the street

All night awake

In the moonlight I’m with you

In the moonlight I’m with you

Brighter than,

All night awake

In the moonlight I’m with you

In the moonlight I’m with you

Brighter than gold!
