My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I’ll stay with you for all of time

I’ll destroy this useless heart
I’ll fuck it up so it’ll never beat again
Not just for me but for anyone

And I wandered through the house like a little boy, lost at the mall
And an astronaut could’ve seen the hunger in my eyes from space

It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

I know I say that I’m just fine,
But I hope you wonder from time to time.

Where were you when I needed you most?

Cause my heart stops without you
There’s something about you
That makes me feel alive

The tears and the laughter are things that we share
Your hand in mine make all the times good
You are the rose of my heart

We lived happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on the pot of gold
