Suzanne Vega
Golden
[Verse 1]
In my heart's currency you are golden
You are shining like the sun upon a cold gray sea
Here's what I do not know
How I come to love you so
And in time all you'll be worth to me

[Verse 2]
Once your words they fell like pennies to the sidewalk
And they shone for everyone but they did not for me
Pennies disappear
I still hold you dear
And golden's what you came to be

[Bridge]
You couldn't know
What I wouldn't show
How you brought to me a deeper kind of pleasure
It moves sweet glow of light
It's the meaning of delight
And you came to be my treasure without measure

[Verse 3]
In my heart's currency you are golden
And you sparkle like the foam upon a cold gray sea
Bubbles disappear
I still hold you near
Golden's what you are to me
[Outro]
You are golden
Shining like the sun
You are golden
Yes, golden's what you are to me
You are golden
Shining like the sun
You are golden
Yes, golden's what you are to me
You are golden
Shining like the sun
You are golden
Yes, golden's what you are to me
