Robin Jackson - Roses and Gold lyrics

Moonshine, oh cover me in moonshine And I will fill your cup with 
sentimental tales of raspberry wine Cause I've been singing these cowboy tears since we came to an end And Im writing snake oil poems 
and drinking alabast gin Like a kite in the wind I'm caught in a spin I'm out on a limb Sweet dreams oh cover me In sweet dreams And i will paint you a story of Roses and gold, and bittersweet things It's time to say hello to These lonesome lullabies And ride into the journey of a new sunrise And may our river of tears Wash away all our fears And make it perfectly clear Sweet pie, oh mama make me Some sweet pie Fill it with whatever makes it better And will cause my eyes to dry And I pray to mother mary Great spirit and the holy fool That we listen to each other and Take heed of the golden rule That you do unto me What I do unto you And we both see it through Soft grace, oh cover me in soft grace And I'll fashion you a cup of forgiveness, gypsum, nettle and lace Cause the poetry that you've Put inside my heart Rattles like a ‘57 engine about to start Like a kite in the wind I'm caught in a spin I'm out on a limb Rain dance oh do a little rain dance Call in the clouds and thunder to Wash away this sorrowful trance And we'll bath in rose petal fire While the whill-o-whisps sing And purify our eyes with water From the holy spring And in the days that were old May the story that's told Be one of Roses and Gold
