[English]

Thank you for comin' home

Sorry that the chairs are all worn

I left them here, I could have sworn

These are my salad days

Slowly being eaten away

Just another play for today

Oh, but I'm proud of you, but I'm proud of you

Nothing left to make me feel small

Luck has left me standing so tall

...

Gold

Always believe in your soul

You've got the power to know

You're indestructible

Always believe in

'Cause you are gold

I'm glad that you're bound to return

Something I could have learned

You're indestructible

Always believe in

...

After the rush has gone

I hope you find a little more time

Remember we were partners in crime

It's only two years ago

The man with the suit and the face

You knew that he was there on the case

Now he's in love with you, he's in love with you

Love is like a high prison wall

But you don't leave me standing so tall

...

Gold

Always believe in your soul

You've got the power to know

You're indestructible

Always believe in, 'cause you are

Gold

I'm glad that you're bound to return

There's something I could have learned

You're indestructible

Always believe in

...

And love is like a high prison wall

And you could leave me standing so tall

...

Gold

Always believe in your soul

You've got the power to know

You're indestructible

Always believe in

'Cause you are gold

I'm glad that you're bound to return

Something I could have learned

You're indestructible

Always believe in, oh

...

Always believe in your soul

Soul, soul

Soul, soul, soul

...
