Its over before it starts Oh dont you know Hold your marks and stand by Ready to go From london to new york, montreal, tokyo I see visions of her everywhere i go What have i become Now that im alone I just looking for a way of breaking through these walls I just looking for a place that i can call my home Is anybody out there got a soul I just looking for love, girl The girl with a heart of gold She over turns once again with her champagne taste She goes straight down the rat hole with her Total wrecklessness and a Tomorrow will come on through And i got nothing but a pain Nothing but a silhouette girl Met her in the darkness I say... What have i become Now that im all alone I just looking for a way of breaking through these walls I just looking for a place i can call my home Is anybody out there got a soul I just looking for love, girl The girl with a heart of gold Yeah I'm in the corner I start over I start the whole slate clean All the pain and heartache in all my years I was always to blame And I dream of this girl Yeah an angelical ghost I met her in my neighborhood I'm a downtown member? Don't let me be misunderstood Oh, I'm a downtown member? Don't let me be misunderstood Heart of gold! What have i become Now that im all alone I just looking for a way of breaking through these walls I just looking for a place i can call my home Is anybody out there got a soul I just looking for love, girl The girl with a heart of gold
