City of Gold (Bob Dylan) There is a city of gold Far from the rat race that eats at your soul Far from the confusion and these bars that hold There is a city of gold There is a country of light Raised up in glory, where angels wear white Beautiful manchild, wavering his night There is a country of light There is a city of gold Far from the ender dreams are made of Defining Heaven in the stars high above There is a city of love There is a city of hope Above the ravine, a familiar door I'm ready and willing, throw down a rope There is a city of hope There is a city of gold Far from this rat race and the bars that hold Peace for your spirit, and rest upon your soul There is a city of gold ========================================================================================================================== City of gold / words and music by Bob Dylan.
