Píseň: Golden Heart

Interpret:
Mark Knopfler

Golden Heart
She was swinging by the bangles in a main street store
A while before we met 
The most dangerous angles that you ever saw
She spied her amulet 
And she took a loop of leather for around her neck 
And that was then the start 
The most dangerous lady on her quarter deck 
She found her Golden Heart 
You found your Golden Heart


Then we swirled around each other and the thread was spun
 to some Arcadian band 
I would stop it from swinging like a pendulum 
Just to hold time in my hand 
And you shot me with a cannonball of history 
And long forgotten art 
I'd be turning it over as our words ran free 
I'd hold your Golden Heart 
I'd hold your Golden Heart


Nothing in the world prepared me for, your heart, your heart 
Nothing in the world that I love more, your heart, your heart 
Your Golden Heart


And every time I'm thinking of you from a distant shore
And all the time I sleep I will have a reminder that my baby wore
A part of you to keep 
And I'll send you all my promises across the sea 
And while we are apart 
I will carry the wonder that you gave to me 
I'll wear your Golden Heart 
I'll wear your Golden Heart


Nothing in the world prepared me for, your heart, your heart 
Nothing in the world that I love more, your heart, your heart 
Your Golden Heart
