Now if all my golden moments could be rolled into one they would shine just like the sun on a summer day And after it was over we could have it back again with credit to the editor for striking out the rain, very clean And all it really needed was the proper point of view No one's gonna bring me down. No one's gonna stop me now Now I gathered up my sorrows and I sold them all for gold and I gathered up the gold and I threw it all away It all went for a good time and a song, come on But laughter was like music; it did float my soul along for a while And all it really needed was the proper point of view No one's gonna reach me here. No one's gonna know I'm gone You may think I might be crazy and I guess you might be right but I know the way I feel today is out of sight I do not trust your senses to remember your name Without corrective lenses things are never twice the same And all it really needed was the proper point of view No one's gonna bring me down. No one's gonna stop me now. No one's gonna reach me here. No one's gonna know I'm gone. (repeat and fade)
