Gold Past Life

You know you're never gonna feel as right Than in your gold past life A ship of paper on a sea of fire Back to your gold past life Helplessly staring at stagnant stars What was this thing that took your spirit away? Head on the bug splattered hood of your car You pray Breathlessly calling up your old love Why did she have to take your essence from you? Life's been rougher but lately it's pretty rough For you You used to dance in the night With a girl you loved so much You used to look her in the eyes as the nightbirds sang I know you're never gonna feel as right Than in your gold past life A ship of paper on a sea of fire Back to your gold past life I know you're never gonna feel as right Than in your gold past life Back to your gold past life Helplessly staring at a cumulus What caused this flood that washed your courage away? With your heart in a knot you cry for love and loss For all of us You used to stare into the void With the love of your life You used to whisper in her ear "Little butterfly..." You know you're never gonna feel as right Than in your gold past life A ship of paper on a sea of fire Back to your gold past life You know you're never gonna feel as right Than in your gold past life A ship of paper on a sea of fire Back to your gold past life Back to your gold past life Back to your gold past life Back to your gold past life
