Ornaments Of Gold Lyrics

Siouxsie & The Banshees Ornaments Of Gold

Silver couches to recline upon
And ornaments of gold
Silver moonbeams dance in fountains
Below shining citadels

Surrounded by silver gates ascending silver stairs
Eureka on angelic prayer wafts in and scents the air
With ornaments of gold
To warm my soul from the growing cold
Ornaments of gold

We can drink from silver vessels
We can feed from silver bowls
Then I'll give you gilded treasures
Anointed by intoxicating oils

Drenched in riches unimaginable
Your splendor drips with jewels that are so beautiful
And ornaments of gold
Warm my soul from the growing cold

Adorable, rewardable you
From head to toe, I'd love to cover you
And smother you in ornaments of gold
In honeydew, I'd love to cover you

Oh lover do bring
Ornaments of gold
Protect our hearts from this cruel world
Ornaments of gold
Ornaments of gold
