Take this heart of gold, and melt it down
And I'll come around
I'll come around
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes
And honey I can't live a lie
But a life without you could never steal me now
With so much time to spend
Why paint this house again?
When the floorboards creak and pull you from your slumber
Well I'd hold you till the end
But honey even oaks must bend
If we intend to stick with one another
So take this heart of gold, and melt it down
And I'll come around
I'll come around
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes
And honey I can't live a lie
But a life without you could never steal me now
Out the door, and down the drive
There's a part of me that tries
To keep that highway's call to me away
And another, further still
That sadly never will
Feel at home, no matter how long I may stay
So take this heart of gold, and melt it down
And I'll come around
I'll come around
I'm treadin' lightly in your eyes
And honey I can't live a lie
But a life without you could never steal me now
