Lyrics

Low, low, low
Low, low, low, low
Low, low, low
Low, low, low, low
New gold dream
She's the one in front of me
Siren and the ecstasy
New gold dream
Crashing beats and fantasy
Setting sun in front of me
New gold dream
And the world goes hot
And the cities bake
And the beat goes crashing
All along the way
She is your friend
Until the ocean breaks
And when you dream
Dream in the dream with me
And when you dream
Dream in the dream with me
'81, '82, '83, '84
'81, '82, '83, '84
New gold dream
Sun is set in front of me
Worldwide on the widest screen
Dream in the dream with me
And the world goes hot
And the cities bake
And the beat goes crashing
All along the way
She is your friend
Until the ocean breaks
And when you dream
Dream in the dream with me
And when we dream
Dream in the littlest dream
'81, '82, '83, '84
'81, '82, '83, '84
New gold dream
The siren and the ecstasy
She's the one in front of me
New gold dream
Burning bridge and ecstacy
Worldwide on the widest screen
New gold dream
Dream in the dream with me
She is your friend
The new gold dream
The new gold dream
Until the ocean breaks
Until the world is hot
Until the ocean breaks
Until the world is hot
Until the ocean breaks
Until the world is crashing
New gold dream
Until the world is hot
She is your friend
Until the world is hot
Until the world is hot
Until the world grows hotter
Until the world grows hot
Until the cities bake
And the cities bake
Until the ocean breaks
And the beat goes crashing
Until the cities bake
And the cities bake
Until the world should break
You go free
And when the world is crashing
Until you go free
Until the cities bake
(Until the world is hot)
(Until the world is hot)
Until the sky breaks
Until the world grows hotter
('81, '82, '83, '84)
New gold dream, ooh, new gold dream
(Until the world is hot)
Until the city bakes
(Until the world is hot)
Until the ocean breaks
(Until the world is hot)
New gold dream, oh, oh
(Until the world is hot)
New gold dream, yeah
(Until the world is hot)
