Honey Gold

(album: Blood Red Roses - 2018)

I get this feeling, every time I see your face
You never grow old, you never look tired, you never seem outta place
What a life you've led, I guess you've seen it all
Put a sign on the door you're untouchable
Put a sign on the door untouchable

Once upon a time you were the leader of the pack, yes you were
But here's to you Honey Gold, you're still a first class act

Somebody's looking down on you
Somebody's smiling down on you
So cool, so fine, class redefined
That style, so wild, that face, such grace
After you they broke the mould, Honey Gold

Somebody's looking down on you, yes they are
Somebody's smiling down on you

I remember you at a rally for peace in the summer of '95
When you marched through the streets of London with all your children by your side
Ah, no man ever claimed you, no woman ever changed you
Put a sign on the door you're untouchable
Put a sign on the door untouchable

And with all your blue blooded connections and all those friends in high places
You know what, there's a rumour going around the street you even partied with The Faces

Somebody's looking down on you, yes they are baby
Somebody's smiling down on you
Opinionated, educated, fascinated, breath taking, heart breaking
Woman of the world or you're just a country girl
After you, they broke the mould, Honey Gold

Every now and then someone comes along
That turns your whole world upside down
You know what
Every once in a while, you'll hear the spoken words of wisdom
That'll turn your whole life around
And you'll say to yourself why didn't I think of that
Why didn't I think of that, why didn't I think of that

Honey Gold
You were our guiding light in the darkness and our dance in the sun
So here's to your health and happiness, stay crazy and forever young
Alright

Somebody's looking down on you, from above
Somebody's smiling down on you
One of a kind, hard to define
An angel of virtue, everybody loves you
You're a star, yes you are
Don't ever leave us Honey Gold
Don't ever leave us

Somebody's looking down on you
Somebody's smiling down on you
