Golden
Sunday Moon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′m covering my ankles at the scene
Before you even know it
And I'm running
From the wolves that come for me

Before you even notice
That I′m calling out your name
Just to feel you once again
There's no escaping the moment

When all is covered in golden
I don't want nobody else but you
All the words left unspoken
Every door left unopened

I′ve been waiting all night for you
And I see you like you see me
And I wonder if you left me any better
On the other side

Cause I know that
I′m holding on to a song that ain't very long
So I′m pressing rewind
Pressing rewind

There's no escaping the moment
When all is covered in golden
I don′t want nobody else but you
All the words left unspoken





Every door left unopened
I've been waiting all night for you

Overall Meaning

The song "Golden" by Sunday Moon is about the desperation and longing for someone you love. The lyrics indicate that the singer is trying to hide from something or someone, perhaps even themselves, but is eventually caught up in the moment with their loved one. The line "I'm covering my ankles at the scene" can be interpreted as an attempt to hide or protect oneself, but at the same time, it could also represent vulnerability, someone who is willing to expose themselves. The singer desires their loved one so much that they call out their name just to feel them again, regardless of the consequences. The chorus repeats "there's no escaping the moment when all is covered in golden" which suggests that they understand that this is a fleeting moment but at the same time want to immerse themselves in it fully.


The second verse speaks of the singer waiting all night for the person they love, and how they see each other. There's a curiosity as to whether their partner has left them any better on the other side. The line "I'm holding on to a song that ain't very long" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the relationship itself, something that is temporary and won't last forever.


In conclusion, Sunday Moon's "Golden" is a heartfelt expression of longing and desperation for someone you love. The lyrics are relatable, and the overall tone of the song is melancholic yet beautiful.

Before you even know it
Before you have a chance to react or realize what's happening

From the people who are trying to hurt me or take advantage of me


Before you even notice
Before you become aware or pay attention to what's happening


That I'm calling out your name

There's no escaping the moment
There's a pivotal moment that I can't avoid, no matter how hard I try

On the other side
In a place beyond where we are now


Cause I know that
Because I'm aware that


I'm holding on to a song that ain't very long
I'm clinging to a brief and fleeting moment of joy or happiness


So I'm pressing rewind
So I'm trying to relive that moment, to go back to when things felt perfect


Pressing rewind
Continuing to try and relive what I've lost
