  • I heard I lost it on the grapevine
    I must admit I had a great time
    There are words for people like me
    But I don't think there's very many

    I've gained the world then lost my soul
    Maybe it's 'cause I'm getting old
    All the people that I know
    Have gained the world then lost their soul

    There's no persuasion that I'm into
    That made some sense of what we've been through
    We should form a new foundation
    If we could find the right location

    Is it prey on display?
    I'm feeling well

    I've gained the world then lost my soul
    Maybe it's 'cause I'm getting old
    All the people that I know
    Have gained the world then lost their soul

    I've gained the world then lost my soul
    Maybe it's 'cause I'm getting old
    All the people that I know
    Have gained the world then lost their soul
