letra de gatsby - amelia day
[verse 1]
all the glitz and the glamour
plastic smiles, fake enamour
we have dresses, we have riches, we have lots of time
we have parties, we have prestige, we have too much wine
seein’ past all the pretty faces
empty hearts and silent dinner places
lives swept up in opulence and dance
barren friendship, happiness, and romance
[chorus]
gatsby was a man in the know
wishes of wealth wrought a desolate trove
he waited five long years for his love to come home
ended alone, just a pile of gold, gold
[verse 2]
daisy withered like a flower
lived in leisure, held no power
she had dresses, she had riches, she had lots of time
she had parties, she had prestige, didn’t care for wine
saw the pathway that her parents had tread
followed footprints that her family had set
a wedding, a new house, a social advance
picture-perfect pairing lacking any substance
[chorus]
gatsby was a man in the know
wishes of wealth wrought a desolate trove
he waited five long years for his love to come home
ended alone, just a pile of gold, gold
[bridge]
when you wait for the green light
it’ll never get brighter
stop starin’ at the other side
live your life where it leads ya
things aren’t always as they seem
perfection is not reality
[chorus]
gatsby was a man in the know
wishes of wealth wrought a desolate trove
he waited five long years for his love to come home
ended alone, just a pile of gold, gold
[outro]
woah
he ended alone
