[Verse 1]
It's a beautiful world
There's magic in this life
And a love that never dies
Like New York City lights
The hotter we get the brighter we shine

[Pre-Chorus 1]
As we wait our turn
To watch it all burn
You'll never be alone

[Chorus]
Forever on the streets of gold
Together we'll be on our own
We'll dance till the sky explodes
I'll love you till the end of the world

[Post-Chorus]
And I will protect you
And I will protect you

[Verse 2]
What a beautiful girl
Your daddy raised you right
He worked real hard to give you better than he had
And I'm lucky a guy
And I will protect you and do him right
[Pre-Chorus 2]
As we make our way
Through the fire and rain
You'll never be alone

[Chorus]
Forever on the streets of gold
Together we'll be on our own
We'll dance till the sky explodes
I'll love you till the end of the world

[Post-Chorus]
And I will protect you
And I will protect you

[Bridge]
Well ash to ashes
And I guess dust to dust
Our bodies they get weak and our engines rust
But yours was just a flower in the desert
I'll follow you into this endless night

[Pre-Chorus 3]
So don't close your eyes
Never say goodbye
You'll never be alone
[Chorus]
Forever on the streets of gold
Together we'll be on our own
We'll dance till the sky explodes
I'll love you till the end of the world

[Post-Chorus]
And I will protect you
And I will protect you
I will protect you

[Outro]
Forever, forever
Forever on the streets of gold
