Golden
Last night a vision came adrift to me
From deepest stewings of my mind in sleep
We know visions are seldom what they seem
But this, this is different

Driving, driving by the sea
One seat for you one seat for me

Ooh, you know I’d say sometimes it’s hard to keep on living
I’d think from time to time it’s right to say that we’re still golden
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us

Let’s take the day off, go and tell your friends that I’m not sorry
It’s safe to say, it’s safe to say we’ll be okay, just trust me
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us

Everything was bathed in sunlight
With us two trespassers of the Earth
Blazing over a rugged turnpike
I felt alive for once, for all it’s worth

Driving, driving by the sea
One seat for you one seat for me
Ooh, you know I’d say sometimes it’s hard to keep on living
I’d think from time to time it’s right to say that we’re still golden
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us

Let’s take the day off, go and tell your friends that I’m not sorry
It’s safe to say, it’s safe to say we’ll be okay, just trust me
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us

Maybe it was all brought on by stress, although
Maybe it’s a sign that I might need a well earned rest
Maybe, but in the meantime I’ll digress
If I shall live what I dreamt
Maybe the boredom let my mind have too much thought
Maybe the redundancy has made my reason rot
Maybe, but in the meantime I’ll digress
If I shall live what I dreamt

Driving, driving by the sea
One seat for you one seat for me

Ooh, you know I’d say sometimes it’s hard to keep on living
I’d think from time to time it’s right to say that we’re still golden
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us
Let’s take the day off, go and tell your friends that I’m not sorry
It’s safe to say, it’s safe to say, we’ll be okay, just trust me
Don’t let the fight die out, don’t end up facing down
We still have life in us

(It’s safe to say, it’s safe to say, we’ll be okay, just trust me)
