Coda

We left our goods behind overnight

They told us there was a place to find

We were all wrapped up in winter coats

Searching gold in the midnight cold

We travelled arm in arm at the same pace

Keeping each other warm in the rising storm

Searching gold

Where's the gold

That we'll share as we share the road ?

Tree trunks had fallen down in our way

Rocks of the ice age that would not stir

We lifted all that trouble our haste

One spell, one voice for one single aim

Searching gold- will we find it ?

Where's the gold

That we'll share as we share the road ?

One step left I'm bound to lead the herd

They're only trailing behind, what can I say

As the horizon cleared

We let go of our hands

Each one hurried to be the first where the gold flows out

Silent rejoicing when one of us stumbled

Oh silent rejoicing when one of us failed
