Letra de The Golden Boy (New Orchestrated Version)
The boy had a way with words, he sang, he moved with grace He entertained so naturally, no gesture out of place His road in life was clearly drawn, he didn't hesitate He played, they saw, he conquered as the master of As the master of his fateThe girl had an iron soul, no one could recognize Material ambition that her gentleness disguised She gave herself to him certain of his fame Wanted him for luxury, for limelight and his nameAnd then he sang to herI love you for your silence, I love you for your peace The still and calm releases that sweep into my soul That slowly take controlI love you for your passion, I love you for your fire The violent desire that burns me in its flame A love I dare not nameHis rise was irresistible, he grew into the part His explanation simply that he suffered for his art No base considerations of some glittering reward The prize was knowing that his work was noticed and adoredI love you for your silence, I love you for your peace The still and calm releases, sweep into my soul Slowly take controlYes, he told the truth Accepting every honor with a masterly display Of well rehearsed reluctance to be singled out this way He started to believe that he was all they said and more She forgot, she forgot the reasons, she had wanted him beforeI love you for your passion, I love you for your fire The violent desire burns me in its flame Oh, love I dare not nameThe still and calm releases that sweep into my soul Slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly take controlAnd when at last they fell apart, she wished that she could be The hardened heart of yesterday, as cynical as he By changing for the better, she had changed things for the worse The words that made them happy once now echoed, echoed as a curse
