Golden
Kara Marni Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can we fall?
Can we face our fears and release our yesterday?
We'll be stars
It's the nights like these that take our breath away
Can we paint in colours of love?
Can we find the words to say that you're my favourite hue of blue
And you kiss the colour of morning
Your eyes, the sunrise and mine, the blinding moon
Baby I, come alive, at the times that I'm with you
Lazy days we lay are amazing
I'm still fading, breathing you
For some reason, I need you
This is golden
So cover me, in the colouring, of you loving me
This is golden
So bright and bold, so bright and bold
This is golden
I wanna be, lost inside of the lovely
This is golden
The sky can't hold us, so bright, it's golden
Should we pause?
Should we fight this feeling, fearing that we are
Too involved?
Is it far too fast? will it last? Am I asking too much?
Is this human?
Or I would design the defining crazy love
Is this heaven?
Have you ever felt like this before?
Your eyes, the sunrise and mine, the blinding moon
Baby I, come alive, at the times that I'm with you
Lazy days we lay are amazing
I'm still fading, breathing you
For some reason, I need you
This is golden
So colour me, in the colouring, of you loving me
This is golden
So bright and bold, so bright and bold
This is golden
I wanna be, lost inside of the lovely
This is golden
The sky can't hold us, so bright, it's golden
Heart beat sparkling,
Are we diamonds or could we just be silver linings?
My heart beat, sparkling, are we diamonds or could we just be silver?
This is golden
So cover me in the colouring of you loving me
This is golden
So bright and bold, so bright and bold
This is golden
I wanna be, lost inside of the lovely
This is golden
The sky can't hold us, so bright, it's golden Yeah yeah yeah yeah
This is golden
So right, so right
This is golden




This is golden
Woah, yeah
