Golden
Claptone & Two Another Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You call me in the darkest of times
My heart′s a hurricane
Just thinking 'bout how we used to be
I couldn′t find the words to come down
To feel myself again
I'm on the edge and it feels so deep
'Cause everyone′s so hung up on their history
That time and time again we gotta make-believe
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
So get up
Don′t fall into that trap
Don't be like everybody else
Don′t keep on looking back
Don't bе so hard on yourself
I feel lighter for the first timе
Look outside and I know
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
I know it's getting harder to breathe
When eyes are wondering
I′m being crushed by these walls again
I keep losing track of all of the times
When life seemed everything
I′m on the edge, I don't dare to swim
′Cause everyone's so hung up on their history
That time and time again we gotta make-believe
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
So get up
Don′t fall into that trap
Don't be like everybody else
Don't keep on looking back
Don′t be so hard on yourself
I feel lighter for the first time
Look outside and I know
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
(And now I really wanna feel you)
Feeling lighter than I was before
Coming up and I ain′t gonna fall
Look outside and I realize
We're golden right now
(And now I really wanna feel you)
I′m feeling lighter than I was before
I'm coming up and I ain′t gonna fall
I look outside and I realize
We're golden right now
(And now I really wanna feel you)
So get up
Don't fall into that trap
Don′t be like everybody else
Don′t keep on looking back
Don't be so hard on yourself
I feel lighter for the first time
Look outside and I know
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
(And now I really wanna feel you)
We′re golden right now
We're golden right now
