After the Goldrush Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I dreamed I saw the knight in armor coming
Saying something about a king
There were peasants singing and drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree

[Verse 2]
There was a fanfare blowing to the sun
That was floating on the breeze
Look at mother nature on the run
In the twenty-first century
Look at mother nature on the run
In the twenty-first century

[Verse 3]
I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst through the sky

[Verse 4]
There was a band playing in my head
And I felt like I could cry
I was thinking about what a friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie
Thinking about what a friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie
[Verse 5]
Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flying
In the yellow haze of the sun
There was laughing, crying and colors flying
All around the chosen one

[Verse 6]
All in a dream, all in a dream, the loading had begun
Flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home in the sun
They were flying mother nature's silver seed to a new home

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
