This song is about a girl who left me for someone who had a very big house and was very rich. And I say that she will get fooled from this shiny glitter and gold.
lyrics
You go on, you go on, you go on, I tell you.
I move on, I move on, I move on, I tell you.
VERSE 1:
The dust has covered my love
I haven't seen her in ages
You reap of what you sow
So so so, there ain't no, no collection of wages
She's been away for so long that I've some other men pay her
The beauty of love will wither if you always have something to owe
The blooming leaves will fall, they'll fall as season changes
CHORUS:
What the surface shows you, yeah.
Is shiny glitter and gold
Now that's gonna fool you, yeah
So your mind is sold
And soon you're left out in the cold
Cause the diamond will be stolen from you
And brighter shining gems will unfold
And they will deceive you once more
VERSE 2:
The lust has offered no love
She only longs for riches
You reap of what you sow
So, so, so, you get no, no affection, persuasive
She's been led astray for so long, so long, she let in strangers
The men who bought her soul,
Made her shiver from the hearts that were cold
The heart that they stole, after they took away her wages.
CHORUS:
What the surface shows you, yeah.
Is shiny glitter and gold
Now that's gonna fool you, yeah
So your mind is sold
And soon you're left out in the cold
Cause the diamond will be stolen from you
And brighter shining gems will unfold
And they will deceive you once more
You go on, you go on, you go on, I tell you.
I move on, I move on, I move on, I tell you.
You go on, you go on, you go on, I tell you.
I move on, I move on, I move on, I tell you.
Yeah, I tell you!
