It's over before it starts, oh don't you know
So on your marks, stand by; Ready, go
From London to New York, Montreal to Tokyo
I see visions of her everywhere I go
What have I [bad word] 
Now that I'm all alone

I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul?
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl, the girl with a heart of gold

She overturns once again with her, oh with her champagne taste she goes
Straight down the rathole with her total recklessness
Tomorrow [bad word] on through, and I got nothing but abandonment
Nothing but a silhouette girl - Met her in darkness

I say.. What have I [bad word] 
Now that I'm all alone

I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul?
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl, the girl with a heart of gold
I said I'm just looking for a girl, the girl with a heart of gold

Yeah I'm in the corner I start over - I start the whole thing clean, yeah
All the pain and heartache in all my years, I was always to blame
And I dream of this girl - yeah an angelical ghost
I met dancing through neighborhood
I'm a down member in a floodlight - Don't let me be misunderstood
Oh, I'm a downtown member in a floodlight - Don't let me be misunderstood

(Heart of gold!)

I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul?
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl, the girl with a heart of gold
I said I'm just looking for a girl, the girl with a heart of gold
