Lyrics
Well the money rolls in and the money rolls out
And I ain't seen that money that they're talking about
Well the streets oh the streets ain't paved with gold
It's only concrete baby and it's centuries old
Chorus:
Realise how fragile the world is
You can smile and get betrayed by a kiss
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
I was looking for buried treasure I can't remember where it was
When I asked them why it had to be that way they said the answer's just because
I fell in love with the radio and the satellite
Didn't feel so all alone in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night
Chorus:
Realise how fragile the world is
You can smile and get betrayed by a kiss
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
Chorus:
Realise how fragile the world is
You can smile and get betrayed by a kiss
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
No one sleeps when they get dreams like this
