Oh, you poor forgotten soul
let's get in touch with the world
oh, you know you're not alone
life is rough, we all know

oh, you poor forgotten child
it's so sad, it's so fragile
oh, let's light this fire wild
the world needs it for a while

now all these girls don't break down
could you promise me that?

when your world's on fire would you write me a note?
when you're feeling tired, would you let me know?
cuz I could take you higher than this satellite
and when your fire dies down I'm gonna keep it alive

oh, you poor forgotten soul
let's change it all to gold
oh, you poor forgotten world
there's this love you've never known

change it to gold
change it to gold
change it to gold
I could show you love

change it to gold
change it to gold
change it to gold
let's light it up

when your world's on fire would you write me a note?
when you're feeling tired, would you let me know?
cuz I could take you higher than this satellite
and when your fire dies down I'm gonna keep it alive

now all these girls don't break down
could you promise me that?
change it to gold
change it to gold

when your world's on fire would you write me a note?
when you're feeling tired, would you let me know?
cuz I could take you higher than this satellite
and when your fire dies down I'm gonna keep it, oh,
when your fire dies down I'm gonna keep it
when your fire dies down I'm gonna keep it alive
