Lyrics

I was just a kid in school
Maybe nine or ten, I guess
I only had a friend or two
I was never teacher's pet
I'd be staring out the window
At that old cyclone fence
Watching the light dance, silvery sun trance
It's still what I do best
'Cause all that glitters could be gold
I never believed what I was told
How am I supposed to see
With mirror balls spinning around me?
I might be dancing out of time
Jumping from your song back to mine
Lord, forgive me of my sins
Oh, I do love shiny things
I was just a girl in love
At least that's what I thought, I guess
I had a shiny brand new heart
And my sweet grandmother's dress
And it could have been forever
Like the diamond in that ring
But my heart didn't listen to what didn't glisten
And I wouldn't change a thing
'Cause all that glitters could be gold
I never believed what I was told
How am I supposed to see
With mirror balls spinning around me?
I might be dancing out of time
Jumping from your song back to mine
Lord, forgive me of my sins
Oh, I do love shiny things
Wish I could tell that kid in school
Everything's gonna be alright
Take a chance and play the fool
And stand in your own spotlight
And it won't take forever
'Til it's your song to sing
Keep turning your head and never regret
Love and shiny things
'Cause all that glitters could be gold
I never believed what I was told
How am I supposed to see
With mirror balls spinning around me?
I might be dancing out of time
Jumping from your song back to mine
Lord, forgive me of my sins
Oh, I do love shiny things
Love and shiny things
