This time her mind is made up Yeah, she´s moving on It´s not like her spirit´s crushed It´s just she don´t belong Maybe she just thinks too much
She thinks she´s given enough God only knows she´s got a heart of gold Always looking for love She´s beginning to think she´s cursed On her looks she judged By the folks at work All alone at night she´s cried Silent tears filled with pride One day they´ll know She´s got a heart of gold
And she sings: I want to know what love is But it seems to come with so much pain If no one wants to show me It seems easier just to run away When I am gone it´s just a penny for my soul But God he knows, I got a heart of gold
Been coming ´round here Since she´s a little girl But now the change is clear We live in a cynical world She don´t care for fashion and fame Those kind of people they are all the same They don´t wanna know, she´s got a heart of gold
