Lyrics:

I had a golden ring and I kept it with golden things
In the Bank of Million dreams that was bursting at all the seams
I had a golden ring. It was such an important thing
That I kept it beneath my bed, and I carried it in my head

I had a golden dream, and the way it came down to me
Was through Captains of Alchemy, who came up from a steely sea
And I dreamed through the rainy night, and I managed to sleep alright
And my body became so light, that I managed to give it flight

Because I know gold is just a trick of the light
And lead is light as a feather
So, leave me where the kids are alright
And we will all go down together

I had a golden dream, and they took it away from me
And they pulled it out of my head, and they showed me that it was lead

But I know gold is just a trick of the light
And lead is light as a feather
So, leave me where the kids are alright
And we will all go down together

And that’s the way it’s going to be

And there's water in wine
And there's nickel in dimes
And they knew all the time

But gold is just a trick of the light
And lead is light as a feather
So, leave me where the kids are alright
And we will all go down together

And gold is just a trick of the light
And lead is light as a feather
So, leave me where the kids are alright
And we will all go down together

And that's the way it's going to be
That’s the way, it’s going to be
