Once You Had Gold     Credits: Enya; lyrics by Roma Ryan     Appears On: The Memory Of Trees     Language: English

Lyrics:

Once you had gold, once you had silver
Then came the rains out of the blue
Ever and always, always and ever
Time gave both darkness and dreams to you

Now you can see spring becomes autumn
Leaves become gold falling from view
Ever and always, always and ever
No one can promise a dream come true
Time gave both darkness and dreams to you

What is the dark? Shadows around you
Why not take heart in the new day?
Ever and always, always and ever
No one can promise a dream for you
Time gave both darkness and dreams to you
