"Golden Record" lyrics

"Golden Record"

All your friends are gonna leave you
Busy making little creatures
Old flames at the party
Have started leaving early
Up before the sunrise
Looking after young lives
While you play late on the radio
Dust that never settles
On that golden record

Oh, what are you afraid of now
Worried you might be finally happy
Strange as it sounds
Leave everything at the door
Maybe it's heaven and you just haven't
Been here before

All your friends at the table
Have their stories to tell
And your best friend's daughter
She's still getting taller
Measuring out their lives with
Every passing school year
While you're on album number 9
Dust that never settles
On that silver record

Oh, what are you afraid of now
Worried you might be finally happy
Strange as it sounds
Leave everything at the door
Maybe it's heaven and you just haven't
Been here before

Oh, what are you afraid of now
Worried you might be finally happy
Strange as it sounds
Leave everything at the door
Maybe it's heaven and you just haven't
Been here before

Oh, what are you afraid of now
Been here before
Worried you might be finally happy
Strange as it sounds
Maybe it's heaven
Maybe it's heaven and you just haven't
Been here before
