Bona fide

With a mantle of wisdom
And a fire in my eyes
I'll be waiting 'til the morning
For my chance to arrive

Well they told me he's a sitter
And a better man than I
She embraced me half-remembered
Save your breath, he's bona fide

As the river filled the valley
We recalled why we came
Hidden fortunes, buried treasure
And a will to prevail

Well they told he's a sitter
And a better man than I
She embraced me half-remembered
Save your breath, he's bona fide
