Okay, I am such a minutiae-obsessed nerd - I had to find out which song had the "salad days" lyrics!
Here they are:
Gold Lyrics
Artist: Spandau Ballet
Album: Gold
Thank you for coming home
I'm sorry that the chairs are all worn
I left them here I could have sworn
These are my salad days
Slowly being eaten awayJust another play for today
Oh, but I'm proud of you, but I'm proud of you
Nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
Chorus:
Gold (gold)
Always believe in your soul
You've got the power to know
You're indestructible
Always believe in, that you are
Gold (gold)
Glad that you're bound to return
There's something I could have learned
You're indestructible, always believe in...
And, yeah, Chrissi - once you understand the "salad days" reference, those lyrics are really good!
