​ALL THAT GLITTERS ...

I don’t bother to pray      
that’s not what I need to do today
cause I heave something so amazing  
There are no conditions but my mind still wants more  
in that slow revolving door

all that glitters is not gold, what glitters is not gold
(how oft have you been told?)

Tell me when you settle in,
Surely then you’ll have it all figured out
Surely then you will love again
Surely you’ll free yourself in the end,                  
no one’s gonna wait for you.                         
It’s time to live another story,        
Surely then you’ll know!
Surely then you need to go     
Surely you need to go and then return,                  
Surely then, surely it’s the right time now, every day, and it’s just so amazing, Oh!

I have traveled so far 
but I've never found a shining star
just wasted my time on this old  guitar
What else to do? It's time to close that door 
Just pack it up and say no more

All that glitters is not gold, what glitters is not gold
(how oft have you heard that told?)

Tell me when you settle in,  
Surely then you’ll have it all figured out
Surely then you will love again
Surely you’ll free yourself in the end,                  
no one’s gonna wait for you.                         
It’s time to live another story,        
Surely then you’ll know!
Surely then you need to go     
Surely you need to go and then return,                  
Surely then, surely it’s the right time now, every day, and it’s just so amazing, Oh!

Now it’s time to turn around
I was lost but now I'm  found
This journey was strange and oh so long
Felt ev’ry pain, sang ev’ry song    
Now it’s back to where I belong 

All that glitters is not gold, what glitters is not gold
(how oft have you heard that told?)

Tell me when you settle in,
Surely then you’ll have it all figured out
Surely then you will love again
Surely you’ll free yourself in the end,                  
no one’s gonna wait for you.                         
It’s time to live another story,        
Surely then you’ll know!
Surely then you need to go     
Surely you need to go and then return,                  
Surely then, surely it’s the right time now, every day, and it’s just so amazing, Oh!

All that glitters is not gold,
Often have you heard that told.
Many a man his life hath sold,
For the outside to behold,
Gilded tombs do worms enfold.
Had you been as wise as bold,
Young in limbs, in judgement old,
Your fate would not be so inscrolled,
Fair you well, your suit is cold. 

All that glitters is not gold.
All that glitters is not gold.
All that glitters is not gold.
