Gleaming, twinkling Eyes like sinking ships on waters So inviting, I almost jump in
But I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipating my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush
What must it be like to grow up that beautiful? With your hair falling into place like dominoes I see me padding across your wooden floors With my Eagles T-shirt hanging from the door
At dinner parties, I call you out on your contrarian shit And the coastal town we wandered 'round Had nevеr seen a love as pure as it And then it fadеs into the gray of my day-old tea 'Cause it could never be
'Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipating my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you
Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush
What must it be like to grow up that beautiful? With your hair falling into place like dominoes My mind turns your life into folklore I can't dare to dream about you anymore
At dinner parties, I won't call you out on your contrarian shit And the coastal town we never found Will never see a love as pure as it 'Cause it fades into the gray of my day-old tea 'Cause it will never be
Gleaming, twinkling Eyes like sinking ships on waters So inviting, I almost jump in
