lyrics

washed up on golden dreams
edmund thought all along
like a last farewell trip
he'd dig for his own swan song

looking for the glory and shine
lasting traces were left behind
wandering from rivers to lakes
there was more than the gold at stake

and even though they thought you mad
you never stopped, you've never quit

i know there's something up there
i'm telling you
i felt it in my bones, it was like coming home

through all the effort, was it all just for gold
through all the effort, was it all just lust for gold

revved up on golden dreams edmund thought all along
i have to get up there, i know there's something more

and even though they called you mad
you had to try one last time
and even though you were told to quit
you came back

edmund
would've you believed it would last so long

a hundred years and still counting
