Last night I dreamed while I was walking
That I died looking up
At fancy buildings and skyscrapers
Are real heartbreakers
When your time has come and gone
It could've been all yours for a song

Of all the things I ever wanted
It was you and love and freedom
But I was a girl haunted
In the blue, undaunted
Just swimming for the shore
And wondering what the hurt is for

But tonight I know why I'm here
I don't need to lose you to know
That it's already golden
Tonight I know in my heart
I don't need to die just to see
That it's already golden
That it's already golden

So take the purple and take the black
And take all of the colors of heartache back
And throw them in the sea
And say you love me
Keep the silver, keep the gold
Stay and watch the world get old
'Cause tonight I know why I'm here
I don't need to lose you to know
That it's already golden
Tonight I know in my heart
I don't need to die just to see
That it's already golden
It's already golden
It's already golden
It's already golden
It's already golden
It's already golden
