Halo Of Gold Lyrics
have you got a fine place to slip to
when you're feeling down
have you had a week or two
just to get your troubles down
found a lot of life and laughter
with a grandfather in the bowery
she had a body of sixteen or seventeen
she had a mind of forty
i met her on a cold day
in a city far away
with the worlds about zero
and i saw at once,
into her soul
she's gonna call me her hero
never like a walk in the rain or the lane
i found a lot of death that day
with the grandfather in the bowery
cause i like her like the world
she had a halo of gold
told me stories of her life and the courage was sublime
pantomime
i walk the line
cause you're blind
i walk the line
when you're feeling down
have you had a week or two
just to get your troubles down
found a lot of life and laughter
with a grandfather in the bowery
she had a body of sixteen or seventeen
she had a mind of forty
in a city far away
and i saw at once,
into her soul
she's gonna call me her hero
i found a lot of death that day
with the grandfather in the bowery
cause i like her like the world
told me stories of her life and the courage was sublime
pantomime
i walk the line
cause you're blind
i walk the line

I don't know what this song mean exactly, but I have to say even though I like Skip SPence's original version better I have to say Beck's cover is totally genius, and if it weren't for this song I never would have heard of Skip SPence to begin with. As far as what the song means I always felt like it was about following someone you love and hoping they'll notice you and come over to say hi or something. But that's just what I think.
