James Webber all that glitters

Select language to translate this lyric

The lights of the city hit my one good eye
Where every night I fall on my sword
I only want to go where it says I can't go
But every time I get there I'm bored
Just when autumn comes and everything turns gold
I needed to keep holding on
Ah, but now I know for sure
All that glitters isn't all that matters anymore
I re-offend darling every time I think of you
I'm still going out, picking up waifs and strays
And the fact that no man ever played guitar didn't use a woman
Really doesn't make it okay
But just then autumn comes and everything is lost
I crouch here in the shadows night and day
Ah, but now I know that's okay
All that glitters isn't all that matters anyway
Summertime comes and I wait here at the station
Searching for the next thing that can be my one salvation
O Lord, I've tried to belong
Soon when autumn comes
And everything's gone wrong
I'll be back to going down and getting high
All my life I search for some extraordinary truth
But know that there's no candidate will satisfy
Just the giant glow of cosmic force
And all that glitters isn't all that matters anymore
