When I see you cry well you know that I just feel such desperation And it seems that I'll never understand this crazy situation And it seems that lovers must be sad just to make some complication
CHORUS And you can't hold on to the silver and gold The silver won't have you and the gold's been sold
When I close my eyes on the long hard day and I drift into my dreaming It's the brightest lights that I want to hold all the rest have no real meaning And it seems that good friends have to part for to stay is too revealing CHORUS
And that's the way it seems when there's nothing in this world of which we're certain You can see we're lost and it's obvious we're in need of some direction Oh and all the shadows closing in, they're just some old reflection CHORUS
