Midas Touch from Bloodlines by Spirits Burning & Bridget Wishart
King Midas (Mita of Phrygia from the 8th Century) pleased the Gods and was granted his wish — everything he touched turned to gold including, to his horror, his daughter.

Turns to gold . . .
Don't you see what's happening?
Our dreams are changing
The lines of life in our hands
Shiny and cold . . . Gold . . .
It’s a curse what makes it worse is your desire
It’s a curse what makes it worse is your desire
Your desire -- The Midas Touch
This is what's occurring, dreams are turning
The lines of our hands, are forever burning
Turns to gold . . .
Don't you see what's happened?
My dream has changed us
And your lines of life . . .
Touch, touch, touch
Aaaaah The Midas Touch . . .
