about

Making tough and ugly situations work out to your benefit through faith in yourself. Inspired somewhat by the story of Rumpelstiltskin. Great uplifting ending. Kind of speaks for itself while maintaining a foothold in solid song structure. It's actually supposed to represent some kind of theatrical exercise in devotion but I lost track of that. That's where the references to features and story lines and such came from. Instead I tried to capture a big dramatic sunset and a warm place to fuck.

lyrics

STRAW INTO GOLD
Words and Music © 2012 DesmondGrundy (SOCAN)

Beach girl take me down.
Along your peach shores.
Space is light.
Time is out of sight.

Please stop your wandering.
And drop your mystery.
Space is night.
Time is lost in flight.

There’s a moment, we are changing.
It’s an ocean. We are swimming.
You're the feature in my story.
You're the Straw turns Into Gold

Please take me down.
Behind your peach door.
Space is tight.
Time is black and white.

Speed love.
Gotta love now.
Speed, love gone.

Beach girl are you wondering.
About what’s you and me.
Space is made.
Time is all made up.

There’s a moment, we are changing.
It’s an ocean. We are swimming.
You're the feature in my story.
You're the Straw turns Into Gold

There’s a moment. It’s an ocean.
