So delighted I was when you
Began to fill the emptiness in me
Little did I imagine I would
End up with clogged arteries

I should never have let you go
I was probably insane
Especially after you bought a house
With a loan against my name

I wish I could
Turn back time
And go back
To when we first
Locked eyes with
Each other and
Started talking

This time I would keep walking

It is your heart of gold
That filled mine with delight
It is your heart of gold
That shines through the night

It is your heart of gold
That reflects in your eyes
It is your heart of gold
That lights up the skies

It is your heart of gold
Why I put you in a museum
It is your heart of gold
Why tickets sell at a premium

Loving you feels magical
Charming and surreal
An act of warmth and ecstasy
Unrivalled fantasy
Your love leaves me exuberant
Loving you just feels different

Believe me, Darling
All that I speak is true
Believe me, Darling
I’ve loved a hundred before you

When it seems like
You are failing in love
With no hopes of success
In near or distant future

Then perhaps it is time
To stop dating a teacher

Don’t be afraid
To make the next move
It might make
All the difference actually

Now if only you could
Roll an eight in monopoly

When the wind blew in and
Touched my skin
Your memories resurfaced
From deep within

The memories I thought I
Had successfully blocked
Of how you always left
The windows unlocked
