Hour Of Gold Lyrics - Hickory Wind - Emmylou Harris

I have seen your soul turn black 

And then retreat 

To that dark place where no one else may follow 

I waited here for your returning 

To roll your cigarette 

And wash your bloodied feet. 

You have heard the silent running 

Of my dreams 

Broke me from the grip of grief and fever 

With the sound of your voice speaking my name 

And a kiss 

That I will feel forever.

In the hour of gold, the hour of lead 

WG did forge our wedding bed 

On a hard and holy road 

We lay down our head 

In tha hour of gold, the hour oi lead. 

I have watched you riding on 

The wall of death 

And when il finally breaks you and you fall 

I will tear this dress of muslin that you gave me 

To bind the fatal wound 

And catch your last sweet breath. 

In the hour of gold, the hour of lead 

We did forge our wedding bed 

On a hard and holy road 

We lay down our head 

In the hour of gold, the hour of lead. 

Photos 

But the world will be my witness when 

They excavate my heart 

And find the image of your face 

Imprinted there like some Shroud of Turin 

That neither time Nor tundra could erase. 

In the hour of gold, the hour of lead 

We did forge our wedding bed 

On a hard and holy road 

We lay down our head 

In the hour of gold, the hour of lead...
