Heart of Gold

A heart of gold
10 pounds of loving
Can still be cold
I swear I’ve felt about a dozen
Its ivory skin
And straight decisions
Have put me where I’ve been
Ahead of bad collisions
And defeated
It’s best when it’s meant for me
And the simpleton I’ve always been
Can we relive?
Will she forgive me?
This desert air is hell and definite for living
And defeated, it’s best when it’s meant for me
And the simpleton I’ve always been
And the desperate heart of my poor kin
And defeated, it’s best when it’s meant for me
And the simpleton I’ve always been
And the desperate heart of my poor kin
And the places that I’ll never be
A heart of gold
Ten pounds of loving
Can still be cold
I swear I’ve felt about a dozen
