Gold lyrics

I've sailed in my boat round the Cape of Good Hope Africa surprise To search for the gold that the Spaniards had told Would dazzle a dead man's eyes Saw Cortez conquer Mexico, Pissaro take Peru But I'd give all the gold in Eldorado just to be with you I've seen trumpeting herds of fine feathered birds Blacken up the sky To pick at the bones of the man who left home To search for gold and die Saw Cortez conquer Mexico, Pissaro take Peru But I'd give all the gold in Eldorado just to be with you I've seen cities appear built by men without fear Twinkle of an eye Then crumble to dust in the hot dessert air When the land had been sucked dry Saw Cortez conquer Mexico, Pissaro take Peru But I'd give all the gold in Eldorado just to be with you
