Lyrics

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 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
