The Sound Of Water - Pirates' Gold (feat. Ruth Campbell)

When I was young and full of hope I dreamed of pirates' gold
But now I've grown I seldom tell the stories I once told
The years have come and gone my friend and never they'll return
But sometimes I look back on life and wonder what I've learned
Take me back take me back to those summer days
On sunny days we'd run over the sand and we'd search for pirates' gold
It was there we first set sail and wrote the early chapters of our tale
Set a course for our dreams and a different pirates' gold
I went to school to learn the rules and wonders of the world
But soon I learned the simple truth with money heads will turn
Now that's not how it's meant to be if truth is what you seek
And love and friendship mean much more than riches you can keep
Take me back take me back to those summer days
On sunny days we'd run over the sand and we'd search for pirates' gold
But I've learned along the way win or lose it's just the game we play
Not the glories we find on our search for pirates' gold
When I was young and full of hope I dreamed of pirates' gold
Take me back take me back to those summer days
On sunny days we'd run over the sand and we'd search for pirates' gold
But you can't go back in time and change the story or the nursery crime
So treat life as the jewel and don't be fooled by pirates' gold
