Lyrics
The Golden Rule
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I still want you
I still need you too
To be my lover
To be your fool
You bring out the best in me
You fill my head with dreams
To be your lover
To be my muse
They roam vastless states
Then why to be this fool
They're love in my ocean down
This is the golden rule
Wisdom is my mistress
Frees me from these chains
Your superstitions
Your false way
I still want you
I still need you
To be my lover
To be my muse
