Nobody ever told you You shine like a diamond And you need to know What nobody ever told you Glitter like a gold Wish you could see yourself the way I do Take off all the makeup girl Shine your light, show the world Don’t be shy, don’t be scared

The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips, the summer kisses The sun-burned hands I used to hold Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my

Ladies and gentleman Please rise The king is here I've been doing this for a while Putting in work, traveling miles Counting money by the pile My sounds make your lady smile I've been doing this for years All the blood, the sweat, the tears

I am believing The lion paws his own teeth now Their hearts are gold What if we run like the wind? Their hearts are gold So you you can love him now What if it were all a dream? What if we were demigods? They'd take to our knee

'Cause I've been waiting Lay me down in golden dandelions 'Cause I've been waiting for this moment all my life Follow me into the dark She said lay me down in golden dandelions We're floating fast over traffic lights Colors burst as I close my eyes

Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold What if our hard work ends in despair? What if the road won't take me there? What if to love and be loved's not enough? What if I fall and can't bear to get up? It shone like gold No gold can stay We could stay

The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips, the summer kisses The sun-burned hands I used to hold Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my

We can't feel ordinary love And we can't reach any higher, If we can't deal with ordinary love We can't fall any further if The sea wants to kiss the golden shore The sunlight warms your skin All the beauty that's been lost before wants to find us again

Watched it pour as I touched your face Well, it burned while I cried 'Cause I heard it screaming out your name I set fire to the rain Let it burn That I never knew, never knew All the things you'd say They were never true, never true

These streets aren't paved with gold Don't believe everything that you're told Deception hides in all you see Corruption hangs in the air that you breathe And in the land of the free You know nothing comes for free These colours don't run, Like colours
