Lady in Gold

Lady dressed in gold

She is young, she is old

She's the keeper of the soul

She's called death

Takes you in her arms

Like a child to a mother

She's your sister, she's your brother

She is death

She is knockin' at your door

Don't have to run no more

This day I knew was comin'

Wasted all my years with all my fears

When nothin' didn't mean nothin'

Lady dressed in gold

She is young, she is old

She's the keeper of the soul

She's called death

Takes you in her arms

Like a child to a mother

She's your sister, she's your brother

She is death

There's no use in fightin'

Doesn't matter if you're hidin'

'Cause she is there when there's nothing left

Only longs for your last breath

She's in me and she's in you

She is waitin' for that kiss that will let you go

Lady dressed in gold

Didn't you know?

'Cause everybody knows it

When the time comes

The lady comes for you

To take you home

'Cause everybody knows it

The lady comes for you

Oh, didn't you know?
