Lyrics
He had a heart of platinum gold
He would have given up his sole
He lived his life for just one thing
But he was left out in the distance
He walked the earth and never found
His love he worshiped up and down
A constant tear wars in his eye
But he was left out in the distance
What a world we live in now
Where broken spirits are abound
Could life be so full of shame
That no one ever knew his name
He wore a rose in his lapel
in case he found his southern belle
His face was weathered from the sun
But he was left out in the distance
He had the smell of cheap perfume
he had the likes of a jilted groom
His face cracked when he smiled
He was left out in the distance
(chorus)
He was an actor on a stage
Reading off the final page
The curtain eventually came down
But he was left out in the distance
