She was swinging by the bangles in a main street
store A while before we met The most dangerous angles that you ever
saw She spied her amulet And she took a loop of leather for around her
neck And that was then the start The most dangerous lady on her quarter
deck She found her golden heart You found your golden
heart
Then we swirled around each other and the thread was
spun To some arcadian band I would stop it from swinging like a
pendulum Just to hold time in my hand And you shot me with a cannonball of
history And long forgotten art I'd be turning it over as our words ran
free I'd hold your golden heart I'd hold your golden
heart
Nothing in the world prepared me for your heart, your
heart Nothing in the world that I love more your heart, your heart Your
golden heart
And every time I'm thinking of you from a distant
shore And all the time I sleep I will have a reminder that my baby
wore A part of you to keep And I'll send you all my promises across the
sea And while we are apart I will carry the wonder that you gave to
me I'll wear your golden heart I'll wear your golden
heart
Nothing in the world prepared me for your heart, your
heart Nothing in the world that I love more your heart, your heart Your
golden heart
