The Golden Work Lyrics

Waterboys The Golden Work

I saw a Druid light burn through the Druid hills
I double tracked my dazzled eyes
I double tracked my dazzled eyes
To the darkened glamour of the golden work
The darkened glamour of the golden work

There flamed my heart, there flamed my thought
Three lines in golden distance shone
Three points pricked golden then were gone
The darkened glamour of the golden work
The darkened glamour of the golden work

I heard the universal sigh
Long before I took the western road
To the courthouse of the Cornish King
Nor did my blackbird ever sing
Of the darkened glamour of the golden work
The darkened glamour of the golden work

I saw a Druid light burn through the Druid hills
I double tracked my dazzled eyes
I double tracked my dazzled eyes
To the darkened glamour of the golden work
The darkened glamour of the golden work
The gold, gold, golden work
