As children we're drawn to gold
And wonders of stories told
How riches are earned
Lessons are learned
And all ends well
And life is that simple game
When loves finally comes our way
And if we're naive
We can't help believe
We'll conquer it all
We've found the strongest love
And hope is in our eyes
Let's not take it for granted
All that we're feelin' tonight
Chorus i:
When bands of gold and diamonds
Finally lose their shine
And all the stars and glitter fade away
There's no way to measure
The chance it could last forever
But it's ours right now to treasure
On the way
Tonight all the streets are lined
In moonlight and silver twine
If we make a wish
There's no telling if
It's gonna survive
'cause even the strongest love
Needs a little help along the way
Let's not take it for granted
By letting it all slip away
Chorus ii:
When bands of gold and diamonds
Finally lose their shine
And all the stars and glitter fade away
There's no way to measure
The chance it could last forever
But it's ours right now to treasure
And i do treasure you
Yes i do
Chorus i:
When bands of gold and diamonds
Finally lose their shine
Gonna lose that shine
