Golden Lights - The Smiths

Golden lights displaying your name

golden lights it’s a terrible shame

but oh my darling

WHY DID YOU CHANGE?

Boy in a million, idol, a big star

I didn’t tell you how great you were

I didn’t grovel or scream

Or rip your brand new jacket at the seams

You made a record, they liked your singing

All of a sudden the phone stop ringing

I never thought that you would let

The glory make you forget

Golden lights displaying your name

golden lights it’s a terrible shame

but oh my darling

WHY DID YOU CHANGE?

Top ten idol, king of your age

but who do you turn to when you’re backstage?

Don’t you remember you once knew a girl

Who loved you more than the world

Is life always like this, brother

Good for some but bad for the other

I must put you behind me tonight

'Cause you belong to the lights

Golden lights displaying your name

golden lights it’s a terrible shame

but oh my darling

WHY DID YOU CHANGE?
