Testo More Than Gold - Illy
Testo della canzone More Than Gold (Illy), tratta dall'album Cinematic
So here we are, years on
Came good, found a second voice
And made art out of personal reference points
It's scary, I check my songs
And it feels like so many of my best times gone
Guess I'm scared, man I'm so scared
'Cause I don't know where this road ends
Don't know what lies there
And with age comes wisdom
Lose some, win some
On my lonesome for this one
But still my heart beats with them
Bars, beats and rhythms
Take care of your memories, can't relive them
When I wonder 'bout my own worth
I just hope I splash some bright colours on a cold world
Threw a lifelong career away
On the chance that for a moment you'd hear me play
And I'd make the sacrifice again
For these precious few moments on stage
I swear that
This is worth more than it sounds to me
Worth more than it's worth to me
I need you to know
That this is worth more than it all to me
Worth more than you'll ever see, ever see, oh
I don't expect y'all to remember me
When the dead leaves fall from the evergreens
When our summers end
Our paths cross here, it might never come again
It's that well-worn fate of the music men
Something like an admission of mortality
That old foe, time's like gravity
Can't beat it, only hope to look back happily
And say if I had mine back I'd do it all again
Yep, every misstep and regret
That I've grown to accept
Whatever comes next
I commit you my future
Give you my past
Gift you these words
'Cause the present don't last
So before I'm an old flame in your heart
And my words fade as quick as the next song starts
I made this for you to take
Thanks for believing
Just let me keep that
Call it even
With blood we swear
With tears we shine
We grow, we age
We fade, we die
We die, we die
We live ever
This is worth more than it sounds to me
Worth more than it's worth to me
I need you to know
That this is worth more than it all to me
Worth more than you'll ever see, ever see, oh
This is worth more than it sounds to me
Worth more than it's worth to me
I need you to know
That this is worth more than it all to me
Worth more than you'll ever see, ever see, oh
Yeah, and it's sad but to start something new
I had to wave part of my life goodbye
So these the first steps of Illies 1-2
And this the last roar of a phrase as crooked I
So this one's for you my brother
Long may it echo years after the final scene
Could never pay you what's due my brother
So this a toast to what is and what might have been
