Static into Gold

White paint peeling on my porch swing;

Parked the Chevy where the tall grass grows;

Looked up to see that big round oak;

Hanging high above the rose;

Your boots are picking up the gravel;

Moving light against the dark;

I see you swaying in the mist;

Like a diamond in the park;

Turning silence into gold;

Stories that we never told;

Dancing in the midnight rain;

Hearts beat brave against the pain;

Turning silence into gold;

Feeling young and acting bold;

Midnight hearts don't ever sleep;

Promises we're gonna keep;

Radio is buzzin' through the kitchen;

A little fuzz between my songs;

You take my hand and lead the way;

Right back where we both belong;

Forget about the bills and worries;

Leave the heavy world behind;

Just a couple lucky souls;

With a little peace of mind;

Turning silence into gold;

Stories that we never told;

Dancing in the midnight rain;

Hearts beat brave against the pain;

Turning silence into gold;

Feeling young and acting bold;

Midnight hearts don't ever see;

Promises we're gonna keep;

The clock is ticking on the mantle;

But the stars are standing still;

We'll keep on movin' through the clouds;

Way up on this cryin' hill;

Turnin' silence into glory;

Stories that we never caught;

Dancin' in the midnight rain;

Hearts beat brave against the pain;

Turning silence into gold;

Feeling young and acting bold;

Midnight hearts don't ever sleep;

Promises we're gonna keep;
