Gold And Braid

Though deep set
Okay, Orson (one...)
Introducing Orson Welles (one, two...)
War of the worlds (three, four)

Though deep set, somewhat shadowed
Her life, her mystery
Was no different than the way that he said
"Don't hide behind your hair that way"

In his heart, he wishes for her stardom
His eyes wish for her, for more
It's not so different than the way that he said
"There are so very few stars left", ooh-ooh

But don't hide behind your hair
It's a bit of gold and braid
Easy come the tears
You see a pathway ending with a doorway
As she slips towards the doorway
He's been waiting there all day
All these years

Though deep set, somewhat shadowed
Her life, her wisdom of old
It's not so different than the way that he said
"Well, don't hide your eyes from me that way, baby"

Oh, don't hide eyes from me
Here's a bit of gold and braid
Easy come the tears
She sees a pathway ending with a doorway
As she slips towards the doorway
He's been waiting there all these
All these years

Don't hide it
Ooh, in his heart he wishes to forget her
Like to make her better
Hold her like a child

Though deep set, somewhat shadowed
Is her life, her mystery
It was no different than the way that he said
"But don't hide behind your hair that way, baby"

But don't hide behind your hair
It's a bit of gold and braid
But easy come the tears
She sees a pathway ending with a doorway
As she slips towards the doorway
It's been waiting there all day
All these years

Don't hide your eyes that way
Don't hide anything not anymore
Oh, in the eye of a storm
When all the pride is gone
When all the light is gone
There is lightning

In a dream he whispers, but this time
You cannot run away, run away from me
Well, and in a dream he whispered
That I never did not love you
