[Intro]
(Ooh)

[Verse 1]
Honestly
It’s been a while since I thought of you
In the end, we didn’t talk much
I didn’t know what you were going through
I’m sorry that I wasn’t there
To hug your mama at the funeral
Brian said he broke down
But he promised it was beautiful
[Pre-Chorus]
When we were young
We didn’t care
We shot for the stars
I’ll see you up there

[Chorus]
You had a heart of gold, yeah
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon, it was out of your control
Underneath your skin and bone
You had a heart of gold

[Verse 2]
I didn’t cry
I didn’t even feel the pain
And then it hit me all at once
When we talked about you yesterday

[Pre-Chorus]
When we were young (When we were young)
We didn’t care (We didn’t care)
We shot for the stars (We shot for the stars)
I’ll see you up there

[Chorus]
You had a heart of gold, yeah
You had a heart of gold
You left too soon, it was out of your control
Underneath your skin and bone
You had a heart of gold

[Outro]
When we were young
We didn’t care
We shot for the stars
I’ll see you up there (You had a heart of gold)
When we were young (Ooh)
We didn’t care (We didn’t care)
We shot for the stars
I’ll see you up there
You had a heart of gold
(Yeah)
