Gold

Liner Notes

DEMO written, performed, & produced in Logic by Kate E. Stanton 2/23/25 for FAWM #singersongwriter #dreamy #harp #piano
I recently attended a composer's workshop with the instruction of creating a song based off of specific pitches tied to letters in a name. I chose M-O-L-L-Y (Gb, G#, D#, D#, C#) for my inspiration and created this for my daughter.

Lyrics

Gold
You came in the dark, where light was so far,
Lost in my loneliness, you are a star.
A dream I’d hoped to see, & hold so tight,
Innocence bold, like purest light.

Heart of gold
My shining stone
A ray of hope in all I've ever known,
In your eyes,
I want to be
The very best
version of me.

No money buys what I have found,
This treasure of gold, she's always around
floating freely in my mind
freely in my heart like
an inner child

That’s why I love you.
I love you,
heart of gold.
I want to be the best version of me.
