You said you love the night
So I went in the sky
And turned off all the lights
I lassoed every star

You said you love the ocean
So I went out and dove in
Put it all out in the open
Gave up my own wild heart

I conquered the world and then some
Captured the golden crown
Still I heard you found

I heard you found
A young gun from another town and they´re
Everything I couldn´t be
I heard you´re down with a
Young gun from another town and it´s
Killin´ me softly to see
Do you ever think of me?

How could I compete with a
A young gun from another town?

Soul began to break
From underneath the weight
Been tryna keep the pace
But that road went on and on
I coulda tried to run
But to stay forever young
Is a war that´s never won
And time is just way too strong

Oh, what a tragic ending, mm
Oh, what a hurtful sound
When I heard you found

I heard you found
A young gun from another town and they´re
Everything I couldn´t be
I heard you´re down with a
Young gun from another town and it´s
Killin´ me softly to see
And do you ever think of me?
How could I compete with a
A young gun from another town?
