And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies Will always shine, will always shine And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies Transcending time, transcending time From a distance it seems that they're waving But I fear that they are beyond saving And as the light of heaven sets surrounding They're not really waving, they are drowning And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies Reflecting light, reflecting light And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies They shimmer in white, they shimmer in white It appears they're happy and behaving Their eyes reveal a longing and a craving Of dreams where hand in hand they both are flying But they're not really laughing, they are crying And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies Like tears of pearls, like tears of pearls And the gold of their bodies, and the gold of their bodies From a golden world, in a golden world Children's joy and lunatics still raving We behold the silent grace amazing And as the light of heaven set surrounding Hark the herald angel trumpets sounding They're not really waving No, they're not really waving No, they're not really waving They are drowning They are drowning And the gold of their bodies
