Eric Woolfson - Golden Key Lyrics

When I was bornNo silver spoon in my handNo trumpet blewNo bells rang out in the landNobody said life would be easyNobody promised me an island in the sunFor all my lifeI've walked as tall as I canAmong the crowdA small invisible manI wasn't born to be a heroI have to make the dream become realityI know that somewhere there must beA golden keyAnd give me a reason to believeThere is freedom in the airAnd it's easier to be/breatheA golden keyThat will open any doorAnd the truth that lies withinIs no secret anymoreI fill my shoesAnd walk wherever they goA man of strawFor every wind that may blowI have to take control of my lifeI want the world to seeA different side of meUnlock these chains and set me freeA golden keyTo a castle in the airAnd a heaven here on earthWill be waiting for me thereA golden keyTo the place I want to beOn an island in the sunAnd the hero would be meDon't want to live my life in silenceOne taste of paradiseIs all there has to beIs all there has to beSet me freeA golden keyTo a castle in the airAnd a heaven here on earthWill be waiting for me thereA golden keyTo the place I want to beOn an island in the sunAnd the hero would be meA golden keyThat would open any doorAnd the gold that lies behindWill be mine forevermoreA golden keyAnd my life would be completeWith a crown upon my headAnd the whole world at my feetA golden key...
