I'm so sorry for all the things I've done
Left you alone just to live the run
Can I save my place
For when I realize my wrong
Can I leave the chase
When I see what I've done
You're the one that held a steadfast hand
When I was fleeing from the promised land
Leave a hat for me
On the hook by the door
Leave a key for me
Under the mat on the floor
Hooked on believing that the grieving was for something I longed
But what I'm leaving is an evening spent with someone I love
Fleeing to somewhere where the streets are filled with glitter and gold
But it's true what they say
Everything that glitters is cold
On the threshold of the life that I dream
Blow a kiss goodbye with a smile through your teeth
Give a wishful thought
That it'll all work out fine
For the times I fought, baby
With you in mind
Will the dream lights ever fade
I'm blinded from seeing the world I've made
Hooked on believing that the grieving was for something I longed for
But what I'm leaving is an evening spent with someone I love
Fleeing to somewhere where the streets are filled with glitter and gold
But it's true what they say
Everything that glitters is
Everything that glitters is cold
