Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby youre solid gold
Baby youre solid gold
Shine forever, cant wait till tomorrow
I want you baby
Maybe tonight I'll take you far away
I see you dancing
Shining like a jewel
Burning for love
In the golden light of love inside
You're my prize, my heaven, You're my precious fire for me
Baby you're solid gold
Reaching out, I don't wanna let you go
Baby you're solid gold
Shine forever, can't wait till tomorrow
Baby you're solid gold
Reaching out, I don't wanna let you go
Baby you're solid gold
Shine forever, can't wait till tomorrow
I need you baby
Crazy for you and all the things I do
Feel like romancing
We were meant forever




Ill take you far away
Shining like a jewel
