Golden Hour
Champagne Lane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take a look at my eyes for a moment, I won′t say a thing
I've been reading those books that you gave me
And I′m having some crazy dreams
All the pictures on the wall are talking to me
All the colors are falling, falling right at my feet

Tell me why am I feeling like the world is spinning my way?
All my dreams are painted gold
I don't know what sparked this fire
I like the way it burns
Just to look in your eyes I realized
I was on my way
On my way home

The clouds covering the sun this morning only means one thing
That I get to know my baby, like, she probably just
Had a little mood swing
How much joy can a moment bring?
Every moment with you, I'm knocked right off my feet

Tell me why am I feeling like the world is spinning my way?
All my dreams are painted gold
Ooh I don′t know what sparked this fire
I like the way it burns
Just to look in your eyes I realized
I was on my way
On my way home
On my way home

Well it′s golden hour
Oh every moment I'm with you
Well it′s golden hour
Oh darling if you only knew
Well it's golden hour
Oh every moment I′m with you
Well it's golden hour
Oh darling if you only knew
Only knew




Only knew
Only knew...
