Anybody tell you
That there is no resale value
When your romance goes to hell you
Better say farewell to what you thought was wealth
Ever get the feeling
That the paint has started peeling
Are you staring at the ceiling of your castle
Dreaming that youre someone else
Would you like to meet me in this song
(Ive been hoping to)
would you like to come and prove me wrong
(No, Ill agree with you)
Golden teeth and silver medals
Beautymarks and scars
That is what we got
Raindrops in a reservoir
And minutes in a jar
That is what we got
Maybe if I had another drink
Id see the pattern in the blinking
Of the traffic lights
Do you think youre happy, Nicolai?
I dont know the answer Nina
Life is like a melody
A pendulum that swings
Between the major and the minor
Its a lullaby
Im so glad I met you in this song
(its just a breath Ill throw)
Im so glad youre here to sing along
(My voice into the flow)
Golden teeth and silver medals
Beautymarks and scars
That is what we got
Raindrops in a reservoir
And minutes in a jar
That is what we got
Im a little worried that the worst is yet to come
Im afraid theyll leave us out here
Melting in the sun
Well be second best until we know we have won
But until we do well sing this song
(Til we know weve won)
Well sing until our need for it is gone
(Well be singing this song)
Golden teeth and silver medals
Beautymarks and scars
That is what we got
Raindrops in a reservoir
And minutes in a jar
That is what we got
