Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Honestly
It's been a while since I've thought of you
In the end we didn't talk much
I didn't know what you were going through
I'm sorry that I wasn't there, to hug your mama at the funeral
Brian said he broke down, but he promised it was beautiful
When we were young
We didn't care
We shot for the stars
I see you up there
You had a heart of gold (yea!)
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon
It was out of your control, underneath your skin and bones
You had a heart of gold
I didn't cry, I didn't even feel the pain
And then it hit me all at once
When we talked about you yesterday
When we were young (when we were young)
We didn't care (we didn't care)
We shot for the stars (we shot for the stars)
I see you up there
You had a heart of gold (yea!)
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon
It was out of your control, underneath your skin and bones
You had a heart of gold
When we were young
We didn't care
We shot for the stars
I see you up there
You had a heart of gold
When we were young (ooo, ohh)
We didn't care (we didn't care)
We shot for the stars
I see you up there
You had a heart of gold
