Thought maybe we could dance for life In your eyes I saw a home but then you let my hand go If you’re done telling all your lies If you really want them other guys We’ve been headed south from the start Let me say this from my heart now Pack your bags and get the hell on out We got nothing left to talk about I’m just sorry that I bought the ring It don’t mean a thing – not a single thing I really think I gotta let you know Deep inside you’re still my treasure though And that’s what fuckin really hurts the most All that glitters isn’t really gold All my homies tell me I’ll be fine And I can’t tell apart my heart, my mind Deep inside I’m better for it though I’d rather be alone, better off alone I can take my mind back to a time when we would try To keep love burning through the winter nights Said I’d always be your treasure I thought we’d end up together But momma told me to love completely Only then can the heart see clearly I can’t see through the hurt now that you’re gone I don’t feel complete out on my own You wanna be a dancer right? Thought maybe we could dance for life Never thought I’d feel this whole but then you broke my heart so If you’re done telling all your lies If you really want them other guys We’ve been headed south from the start Let me say this from my heart now Ain’t nothing left to say no more Seven years walked out that door Ain’t nothing left to fight about Girl you know we can’t work this out and.. Girl what’s so bad about it is I gave it all How you could be the one to let me take the fall? #CapCarter #Gold #Soul #Alternative #Acoustic Music video by Cap Carter performing Gold (Acoustic).
