David Gray
Gold in a Brass Age (Acoustic Version)
[Verse 1]
In search of sleep, I close my eyes
My head is filled with bugs and flies
I don't know if you realise
How much it means
Pray, tell me where that feeling went
I gave my best by accident
In vain, I stride to represent

[Refrain]
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means

[Verse 2]
Now I'm lost for words
My mind heads forward
It's gone the moment I reach the walls
Gets grounded up on top
Still I'm trying to hold it up

[Verse 3]
It's people who have lost their faith
Who speak of life, but play it safe
Arise, you fools
The days breathe
Don't you see
[Refrain]
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means
How much it means

[Outro]
Every moment I got
Every moment I got, yeah
Every minute I got
Everything in my heart
How much it means, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Sing it
Said yeah, yeah
And it's gone the moment I breathe
