the brother brothers - angel island lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
my paper bride came all the way from china
golden gate, san francisco bay
spent a lifetime on angel island
waiting for our wedding day

[verse 2]
there’s a fortune on the golden mountain
stake my claim in the fall
i left my bride on the angel island
she wrote these words upon the wall

[chorus]
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
loving you

[verse 3]
working the goldfields on the high sierras
the early snow began to fall
buried treasure for my darling
under redwood trees so tall

[verse 4]
snowed in all winter on the golden mountain
when i returned in the spring
my bride was gone from the angel island
no one knew where, no one knew where

[chorus]
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
loving you

[verse 5]
now i live my life like a chinese painting
shadows wash against the sky
empty brushstrokes for my darling
we never said our last goodbye

[chorus]
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
one more lifetime
loving you
