Stephanie Mabey - Time And Gold

Men have tried for centuries
To set us free through alchemy
Stirring metals in the heat
To create the key to our immortality
Pouring all their greatest hope
Under the microscope, searching for homemade gold
Some things are to be good to be true
Even the scientists knew soon they'd be gone too
Like me and you

It's okay to let go, you gave it all you had
And you know time and gold were never meant to last
And when they fade some day
We're left with who we loved along the way

If a ripple in time let you rewind
Who would you go find if you were able
They'd pull up a seat, have something good to eat
Tell me who you'd like to see at your table, oh, oh
Waves spread across the beach
And at the edge of their reach you're walking here with me
I don't care what scientists say
Long past the edges of space I'll recognize your face

And it's okay to let go, you gave it all you had
And you know time and gold were never meant to last
And when they fade some day
We're left with who we loved along the way
We're left with who we loved along the way
