Everything’s Turning To Gold
The Rolling Stones Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't care if your love grows cold
Found love in someone else's home
Don't like standin' in the snow

Everything's turning to gold
Everything's turning to gold
Everything's turning to gold
You used to know me long ago
Was so lost and way down low.
Now that the love juice starts to flow,
Now that the love juice starts to flow,
Everything's turning to gold
Everything's turning to gold

Everything's turning, everything's turning
Everything's turning, everything's turning to gold

I'm tired, I'm tired of doing what I'm told.
Things are moving way too slow.
I got no problems, I got no problems, child.
It ain't my business, it ain't my business, ain't my style.




Now that the love juice starts to flow,
Now that the love juice starts to flow.

Overall Meaning

In "Everything’s Turning To Gold," The Rolling Stones sing about the transformative power of love. The singer no longer cares if their previous love has grown cold because they have found love in someone else's home. They do not like standing in the snow, which could symbolize feeling isolated, lonely, or left out. However, with this new love, everything is turning to gold. The repetition of this phrase reinforces the idea that love has the power to change everything for the better.


The lyrics also suggest a personal transformation for the singer. They acknowledge that they used to be lost and way down low, but with the love juice flowing, everything is turning to gold. This line can be interpreted in different ways—love may have boosted their self-esteem, given them a new perspective on life, or helped them discover a newfound happiness or contentment. The final lines of the song assert the singer's independence and confidence. They are tired of doing what they're told and feel that things are moving too slow. They have no problems, and it's not their style to get involved with other people's business.

Another hidden gem in the Stones vast catalog.Great stuff from the best band ever.

Sam Lewis

Who but the Stones would have the balls to put out a song like this?

Nutrocker

Quite possibly their greatest non album B-side (IMO). The Stones probably don't even remember recording this 😂 One of my favourite Stones tracks since first hearing it on "Sucking In The Seventies" and here we have what sounds like the full basic track👍

Simon Edgbaston

I ignore the nonsense that so much of their music is 2nd rate, because it's all GOLD 😁

Simon Edgbaston

@Maurice Goldner 🦋 Yes their so much more than Rock N Roll 📻

Simon Edgbaston

@Peter Mills👍 Darryl is a superb bassist 🦋

Maurice Goldner

Peter Mills
