Goldface
tussilago Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What goes on in my head, now?
No way to understand
Feels like nothing in it
But a pile of sand
Inside your little heart is a symphony
I can hear it from here
I don't own my tears
They all belong to you
All I can see is your goldface?
All I can see is your goldface?
All we want is to tie each others' shoes
Let all loose
But are we longing back
To our mother's womb?
Feeling this love?
Don't poision the ocean where we live
Together we will sink or swim




All I can see is your goldface?
All I can see is your goldface?
