The Alchemist

A long time ago
In an age gone by
There was a man who wanted to find his soul

He came upon some lead
Then, to himself, he said
“I’m gonna’ turn this lead, into gold”

Gold is the journey
Gold is the quest
Gold is the summit
To which I can attest
Gold is the greatest height
Top of the list
Gold is the sign
Of an Alchemist

I know what they say
This here’s fools’ gold
But we’re not talking, gold for shiny rings

We’re talking of the soul
That wants to become whole
A voice is callin’ from the soul, and it sings

Gold is the journey
Gold is the quest
Gold is the summit
To which I can attest
Gold is the greatest height
Top of the list
Gold is the sign
Of an Alchemist

Oh, gold
Not silver
Not copper
Not bronze
Adamantium
Or aluminium too
Gold, yeah gold
Golds the only one
Gold the only treasure that will do

Gold is the journey
Gold is the quest
Gold is the summit
To which I can attest
Gold is the greatest height
Top of the list
Gold is the sign
Of an Alchemist

Go on a journey
Before all life is missed
Search for your gold
Like the Alchemist

Take your time, enjoy the ride
Every bend and twist
I hope you find your gold
Like the alchemist
