Verse 2
Then she met a hollow soul
Filled him with her light and was consoled
She was the moon and he, the sun was gold
Eyes were blinded with his light
The sun she gave reflected back the night
The moon was waning almost out of sight
Softly ocean gypsy calls
Silence holds the stars awhile
They smile sadly for her where she falls
Just the time before the dawn
The sea hushed, the ocean calls her
Day has taken her and now she´s gone
(Chorus)
Have [D7]turned to [E]gold, turned to [A]gold
[A] [G] [A] [G] [A] [D] [C] [D] [C] [D] [Bm] [A] [B] [A] [B] [A] [B]

Verse 3
No one noticed when she died
Ocean gypsy shackled to the tide
The ebbing waves were turning spreading wide
Something gone within her eyes
Her fingers lifeless stroke the sand
Her battered soul was lost, she was abandoned
Silken thread like wings still shine
Winds take pleasure, still make patterns
In her lovely hair, so dark and fine
Stands on high beneath the seas
Cries no more, her tears have dried
Oceans weep for her, the ocean sighs
(Chorus)
Have [D7]turned to [E]gold, turned to [A][G][D]gold[D][A]
