Lyrics
Nothing Into Gold
Lyrics by Dave Hall & Tim Sulka
Music by Dave Hall
HOW DOES NOTHING BECOME SOMETHING?
HOW DO CLOUDS BEGIN TO FORM?
HOW DO CLOUDS TURN INTO RAINDROPS?
HOW DO RAINDROPS MAKE A STORM?
MR. MILLER
HOW DOES NO ONE BECOME SOMEONE?
HOW DOES A BABY BECOME A LITTLE GIRL?
HOW DOES A GIRL BECOME A WOMAN
IN AN INSTANT
FASTER THAN A WHIRL?
I'M COMPLETELY MYSTIFIED
THOUGH IT'S MAGIC
I'VE BEEN TOLD
JANE
WELL, I'VE TRIED AND I’VE TRIED
BUT I'M NOT COMPLETELY SOLD
I NEED MORE THAN LUCK ON MY SIDE
TO TURN NOTHING
JANE/MR. MILLER
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
WHAT WAS ONCE ETHEREAL
CAN IT BECOME MATERIAL?
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
TO TAKE WHAT ISN'T THERE
PLUCK IT FROM MID-AIR
MAKE SOMETHING YOU CAN HOLD
MAKE NOTHING INTO GOLD!
MR. MILLER
HOW DOES NOTHING BECOME SOMETHING?
HOW DOES A CHILD BECOME A YOUTH?
JANE
HOW CAN WISDOM COME FROM IGNORANCE?
HOW DOES FICTION BECOME TRUTH?
JANE/MR. MILLER
I'M COMPLETELY MYSTIFIED
THOUGH IT'S MAGIC, WE'VE BEEN TOLD
WELL, I'VE (YOU) TRIED AND TRIED
AND I'M (NOT) COMPLETELY SOLD
I'LL (YOU'LL NOT) NEED MORE THAN
LUCK ON MY (YOUR) SIDE
TO TURN NOTHING
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
WHAT WAS ONCE ETHEREAL
CAN IT BECOME MATERIAL?
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
TO TAKE WHAT ISN'T THERE
PLUCK IT FROM MID-AIR
MAKE SOMETHING YOU CAN HOLD
MAKE NOTHING INTO GOLD!
GOLD THAT NEVER FADES AWAY
GOLD THAT HOLDS ITS SHINE
THERE’S MAGIC IN EACH GOLDEN RAY FOREVER YOURS AND MINE
JANE
IF ONLY THERE'S SOME WAY
THAT I CAN FIND
JANE/MR. MILLER
TO TURN, TURN, TURN, TURN, TURN
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
WHAT WAS ONCE ETHEREAL
CAN IT BECOME MATERIAL?
NOTHING INTO GOLD
NOTHING INTO GOLD!
TO TAKE WHAT ISN'T THERE
PLUCK IT FROM MID-AIR
MAKE SOMETHING YOU CAN HOLD
MAKE NOTHING INTO GOLD!
GOLD!
GOLD!
