lyrics

Never There

The golden walls of your room
They outshine
They outshine me sometimes

And I believe that I'm leaving soon
Your sweet Apollo
He could barely hang the moon

So help me out
Tell me something I don't already know
'Cause I know that I'm a burnout

Over-zealous boy
Lived in a dreamworld
Where he believed that life was fair
Now he's acting like he just don't care

Never there
Never there

Take a little stroll down memory lane
Remember the good times
When we went dancing downtown

Listen to Louis Armstrong sing
What a Wonderful World
And you'll remember everything

So help me out
Tell me something I don't already know
'Cause I know that I'm a burnout

Over-zealous boy
Lived in a dreamworld
Where he believed that life was fair
Now he's acting like he just don't care

Never there
Never there

Swing low, sing true
Sweet Apollo
Swing low, sing true

The golden walls of your room
Once were doors
That led to gardens I once knew

But now those doors are shut
So is my mind
So is our love

So help me out
Tell me something I don't already know
'Cause I know that I'm a burnout

Over-zealous boy
Lived in a dreamworld
Where he believed that life was fair
Now he's acting like he just don't care

Never there
Never there
Never there
Never there
