Lyrics by Kevin Max
The Wishes and the Golden Years
were trampled on by parents fears
we hid among the shadows in the night
Our bedrooms were our satellites
we dreamed on wings of golden light
pirates of the new romantic dawn
And its so glorious we dance to touchdown radio
See the Glory boys they break the mold
its so glorious we walk the halls of tension tight
they watch us as we kiss it all goodbye
we will write these memories down
just like brave Joan Didion
we will never fade or seem obscure oh no
the girls they crowd around the stage
we catch them with our passion gazes
and sing them songs of better days oh yeah
and its so glorious we dance to touchdown radio
see the glory boys they shine like gold
and oh so glorious we walk the halls of tension tight
and oh they watch us kiss it all goodbye
little by little I turn into you
little by little you become me too
fashion or circumstance its true
we will write these memories down
just like brave Joan Didion
and oh so glorious we dance to touchdown radio
see the glory boys they break the mold
and oh so glorious we walk the halls of tension light
watch us as we kiss it all goodbye
