Boy George – The Medal Song lyrics

You used to say love and be loved all the time
'Til you discovered feelings were a failure sign
When it rains, it rains so hard
The tears begin to show
Now it's raining in my heart
I want the world to know

Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again

Beneath the sea of Hollywood where Frances used to reign
They trade their deepest wishes for a part in someone's game
Spirits die alone at night
For life they cannot hold
I would rather dance with you
Than have a medal to show

Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again

We're just everyday people, not a theatre company
Everyone wants to join us, there's no fear in us you see
It's me for you and you for me ai ai ya ya ya ya

Sun go east, sun go west
Will I wear a medal again
Sun go east, sun go west
We can dance and bring on the rain
on the rain
on the rain
on the rain
on the rain
on the rain

(Yeh oh yeh, woho woho woho yeh
Yeh oh yeh, woho woho woho yeh)

Now I say love for love, not a space in time
The strangest things can shatter kings and take away what's mine
When it's raining in my heart
I want the world to know
I would rather dance with you
Than have a medal to show

Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same as it was again
Through my anger and my joy, my tears and pain
Life will never be the same as it was again

Sun go east, sun go west
Will I wear a medal again
Sun go east, sun go west
We can dance and bring on the rain
on the rain
on the rain
Life will never be the same
Life will never never be the same
In the rain
In the rain

We can dance and bring on the rain
Life will never be the same as it was again
Life will never be the same
Life will never be the same
