[Verse 1]
And I hope that when the sun shines you'll bathe in gold
Gold like my mum's marigolds
Gold like my old man's
Walking through the sand after dipping his toes
Gold out in Silverado
The mountains tumble and roll
The leaves in the trees they flow in the breeze that blows
Gold like this marlboro eye glow
Yeah
And I trust that you'll find
You can hold your own and I'll hold mine
Yeah
And this ocean between us
I dream to swim in it time after time
[Verse 2]
You see, my best friend moved to California
And I can hardly blame him for that
He said he skates down the beach and the air smells like coconuts
I can hardly blame him for that
Sometimes we're struggling to write back
If only I could get a plane, lean back and lift off
Like driftwood on the sea, we could drift off
And pick up once again from where we left off
Like driftwood on the sea, we could drift off
And pick up once again from where we left off
[Refrain]
And I'll stay days out here waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here waiting for you
