She's Becoming Gold - Marc Cohn

She runs down the staircase 
And into the yard 
And she goes down to the end of the drive
With her friends on the phone 
And her angels on guard 
She's just recently feeling alive 
After all of the tears and the changes 
Now there's something that's taken ahold
She's becoming gold 
She's becoming gold 

She thinks of a boy 
That she knew back in school 
And she wonders if he's doing all right 
The man of her dreams 
Isn't all that he seems 
And the baby don't sleep through the night
Something is moving inside her 
And the weather is turning so cold 
But she's becoming gold, 
She's becoming gold 
She's becoming gold (I've seen her) 
She's becoming gold 

She can hear in the distance 
The sound of the cars 
And she sees the snow falling down on the hill
Now the trees and the houses 
Are white as the stars 
And she doesn't wanna cry 
But she probably will 
As she thinks about all of life's mystery 
And how slowly the answers unfold 
She's becoming gold 
She's becoming gold
