Dreams of Gold

You didn't have a fancy car
or a house where I could live
you didn't have money to buy me things
all you had was love to give
and that was all I needed
but you took that away from me
when it was all I ever wanted
unaware of why it couldn't be-

I've never been materialistic
I just needed a sense of security
someone I could be stable with
someone who was in love with me
and I was sure that someone was you
still there's a small hope I hold
even after the departure, I love you
and consider your love worth more than gold-

But the more we become strangers
the harder it gets to continue to keep
dreams of gold from fading
into black and white sleep.
