Golden Lights Lyrics - Louder Than Bombs - 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 and scream 

And rip your brand new jacket at the seams 

You made a record, they liked your singing 

All of a sudden the phone stops ringing 

Ah ... 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 

Who do you turn to when you're backstage ? 

Don't you remember you once knew a girl 

You loved her more than the world 

Is life always like this, brother ? 

Good for one side but bad for another 

I must put you behind me tonight 

'Cause you belong to the lights 

Those golden lights displaying your name 

Golden lights it's a terrible shame 

But oh my darling 

WHY DID YOU CHANGE ? 

Oh, oh my darling 

WHY ? 

WHY DID YOU CHANGE ? 

Oh ...
