Written by: Aaron Purdy

lyrics

Golden hearted and silver tongued
Diamonds in her eyes of platinum
Molten footsteps follow where she runs
Chasing down her dreams of moon and sun

Dancing through the fire of forgery and anvil drum
A steely eye shines through the cannon’s sound and pounding hum, that’s still to come

Golden hearted and silver tongued
Beguile the eye of an envious one
Rock is singed while torches fail anon
The girl is swept from view and all is gone

Dancing through the fire of forgery and anvil drum
He steals away the beauty of her eyes; the moon and sun, all that he’s won

And in the final call of one last mountain’s mighty thrum
Shining through the fire and forgery of war since gone
Dust will rise and fall about the one girl dancing on, for days to come
