Golden Lights Lyrics
Golden lights displaying your name,
Golden lights a whole lot of shame,
Oh my darling, why did you change?
Boy in a million, idol, big star,
I didn't tell you how great you are.
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 my phone stops ringing,
I never thought that you would let,
The glory make you forget.
Golden lights displaying your name,
Golden lights a whole lot of shame.
Oh my darling, why did you change ?
Top ten idol, king of your age,
Who do you think of when you're off stage ?
Do you remember you once knew a girl,
You loved her more than the world.
Is life always like this, brother ?
Good for one side, bad for another.
I must put you behind me tonight,
'Cause you belong to the lights,
Those golden lights displaying your name,
Golden lights a whole lot of shame.
Oh my darling, why did you change ?
Oh my darling,
Why did you change,
Why did you change ?
Oh ...
Golden lights a whole lot of shame,
Oh my darling, why did you change?
I didn't tell you how great you are.
I didn't grovel and scream,
And rip your brand new jacket at the seams.
All of a sudden my phone stops ringing,
I never thought that you would let,
The glory make you forget.
Golden lights a whole lot of shame.
Oh my darling, why did you change ?
Who do you think of when you're off stage ?
Do you remember you once knew a girl,
You loved her more than the world.
Good for one side, bad for another.
I must put you behind me tonight,
'Cause you belong to the lights,
Golden lights a whole lot of shame.
Oh my darling, why did you change ?
Why did you change,
Why did you change ?

Also covered by The Smiths, though Morrissey's manly voice is quite different from Twinkl's childish, howly voice.
