Lyrics
Golden
Music and lyrics written by Jay Matthes
First verse:
Working all these hours just to barely have enough to pay the rent
Bills stacked on the counter feels like money that we make's already spent
We may not have a lot but a little's more than some folks ever see
It's all in your perspective just how rich or just how poor you want to be
Pre-chorus:
When the sun comes up and shines on my life here with you
It's a reminder of how lucky we are to live like we do
Chorus:
Falling asleep in a room with a window facing east
We wake up to things that are golden
Second verse:
Eighteen karat picture frames
Stories of a king who loves his queen
Sheets of orange and yellow like we're playing in a pile of autumn leaves
A morning touched by Midas
Not a thing inside this room that isn't stained
Walls that look like coins as if we melted down a treasure into paint
(Pre-chorus and Chorus)
