At the edge of the night The heart of the fire Mm Right there From your hall to your bed Holding on to a thread Easy To leave 'Cause you ain't living if you're holding back A kiss is better when you give it back It's just the way it is The way it goes And if that lonely road leads back home You better keep on keeping cold When you found fools' gold Fools' gold Hey, Ma I hope you agree He constantly leaves us Right there I wish we were enough We're competing in love That's tough 'Cause you ain't living if you're holding back It gets better when he gets back It's just the way it is The way it goes And one day when you get old You'll be running down that same road Just to find fools' gold When you found fools' gold At the edge of the night The heart of the fire Mm
