[Verse 1]
Everything's turnin' to gold, Cathy
And the sun is setting in the islands
Above the town there's two swans flyin'
Away home to Heaven
[Verse 2]
And many's the heart was broken
And many the weary traveller
Couldn't even have imagined
Such a Heaven
[Verse 3]
And who are we to go golden
Through the streets, through the islands
Through the long days dyin'
Through the shadows?
[Chorus]
And who are we to go laughin' and smilin'?
Who are we to go hopin' and dreamin'?
Who are we to go walking like children home?
[Verse 4]
Everything's turning to gold, Cathy
Everything old or worn
Everything tired or torn
From the journey
[Verse 5]
And who are we to go golden?
Through the fields, through the forest
Through the night, through the harvest
Through the shadows?
[Chorus]
And who are we to go laughin' and smilin'?
Who are we to go hopin' and dreamin'?
Who are we to go walking like children home?
[Verse 7]
Everything's turnin' to gold, Cathy
And the sun is setting in the islands
Above the town, two swans flyin'
Away home to Heaven
[Chorus]
And who are we to go laughin' and smilin'?
Who are we to go hopin' and dreamin'?
Who are we to go walking like children home?
[Outro]
Everything's turnin' to gold, Cathy
