Barefoot in a borrowed car
Windows down and no map at all
Music drifting down the hall
Half past somewhere, losing time We never had to say a
thing
We only let it stay
Holding in my hands
All that turns to sand
Every single spark
Fading into dark
We were golden for a while (oh-oh)
And we never had to know Just the gold,
just the glow (oh-oh) Before it faded away
We were golden for a while (oh-oh-oh)
Salt water still in my hair
Low light along the stairs
I'm already missing this Before it's even gone
Holding in my hands
All that turns to sand
Every single spark
Fading into dark
We were golden for a while (oh-oh) And we never had to
know Just the gold,
just the glow (oh-oh)
Before it faded away
We were golden for a while (oh-oh-oh)
Maybe it was a golden spell
The kind that summer knows so well
Nothing gold was meant to stay
But it was mine before it flew away
We were golden for a while (oh-oh)
And we never had to know Just the gold,
just the glow (oh-oh) Before it faded away We were golden for
a while (oh-oh-oh)
