Tears of Gold (Stripped) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mama always told me
That I was too naive, gave away my trust for pennies
I said "Don't you worry"
Didn't think that I'd be broken down and crying "Help me"

[Pre-Chorus]
Wrecked? Check. Heart? In debt
All you do is come around, just came here to collect
Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt

[Chorus]
Don't you know that I cried tears of gold for you, I sit here poor for you
Collect my pennies and my dimes, that's why you love it when I cry
Platinum love for you, I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy, so I'm broke and your heart's rich because of me

[Verse 2]
Know that this is my fault, gave a little too much
Knew that this was gonna happen
But I'm not gonna lie, you can make me cry thousand times
I come running back like, what is going on with my head?

[Pre-Chorus]
Wrecked? Check. Heart? In debt
All you do is come around, came here to collect
Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt
[Chorus]
Don't you know that I cried tears of gold for you, I sit here poor for you
Collect my pennies and my dimes, that's why you love it when I cry
Platinum love for you, I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy, so I'm broke and your heart's rich because of me

[Bridge]
And the worst part is I'd do it all over again
The worst part is, I know it's never gonna end
I keep coming right back like a maniac, I keep coming right back like
And the worst part is I'd do it all over again
The worst part is, I know it's never gonna end
I keep coming right back like a maniac

[Chorus]
I cried tears of gold
Collect my- and my dimes, that's why you love it when I cry
Love for you, I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy, so I'm broke, I'm broke

[Post-Chorus]
Wrecked? Check. Heart? In debt
All you do is come around, just came here to collect
Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt
[Outro]
Don't you know that I cried?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
