Gold Dust Lyrics

Cover art for Gold Dust lyrics by Tori Amos

This song is, in part, about her daughter. "Gold Dust" is the song for D.C. (the cherry blossoms, the reflecting pool...); Tori grew up in the metropolitan area. The birth of her daughter has given her pause, and the singer has begun to reflect upon her own childhood.
