There's a heart in the middle of somewhere tonight |
|
Screaming for reasons or just a way out |
|
I put the shirt off my back on a wager that says |
|
There's one every night from my old school yard days |
|
I hear you say one golden rule |
|
One golden rule |
|
There's been times |
|
I've been stood in the wind and the rain |
|
Freezing and busted and tricked out of luck |
|
And I cursed my teachers for all of their reading |
|
What we needed most can't be found in them books |
|
One golden rule |
|
Now they teach you to swim but they don't speak of the danger |
|
Tell you the truth but they never say why |
|
Put you on ice that is thin and tell you it's winter |
|
Without one golden rule the truth is a lie |
|
One golden rule |
